Internet2 K20 Initiative Connectivity Survey

The K20 Connectivity Survey provides data about a broad range of educational institutions' connectivity to Abilene, the high performance Internet2 backbone network.  Sponsored Education Participant Groups (SEGPs) in each state aggregate and connect four-year colleges, universities, community colleges, K-12 schools, museums, libraries, and science and cultural centers to Abilene.  These SEGPs, now in 35 states, provide various services that are also documented in this study.
