    Description

    This is an Australian extract of Speedtest Open data available at Amazon WS (link below - opendata.aws).AWS data licence is "CC BY-NC-SA 4.0", so use of this data must be:- non-commercial (NC)- reuse must be share-alike (SA)(add same licence).This restricts the standard CC-BY Figshare licence.A world speedtest open data was dowloaded (>400Mb, 7M lines of data). An extract of Australia's location (lat, long) revealed 88,000 lines of data (attached as csv).A Jupyter notebook of extract process is attached.A link to Twitter thread of outputs provided.A link to Data tutorial provided (GitHub), including Jupyter Notebook to analyse World Speedtest data, selecting one US State.Data Shows: (Q2)- 3.1M speedtests- 762,000 devices- 88,000 grid locations (600m * 600m), summarised as a point- average speed 33.7Mbps (down), 12.4M (up)- Max speed 724Mbps- data is for 600m * 600m grids, showing average speed up/down, number of tests, and number of users (IP). Added centroid, and now lat/long.See tweet of image of centroids also attached.Versions:v15/16. Add Hist comparing Q1-21 vs Q2-20. Inc ipynb (incHistQ121, v.1.3-Q121) to calc.v14 Add AUS Speedtest Q1 2021 geojson.(79k lines avg d/l 45.4Mbps)v13 - Added three colour MELB map (less than 20Mbps, over 90Mbps, 20-90Mbps)v12 - Added AUS - Syd - Mel Line Chart Q320.v11 - Add line chart compare Q2, Q3, Q4 plus Melb - result virtually indistinguishable. Add line chart to compare Syd - Melb Q3. Also virtually indistinguishable. Add HIST compare Syd - Melb Q3. Add new Jupyter with graph calcs (nbn-AUS-v1.3). Some ERRATA document in Notebook. Issue with resorting table, and graphing only part of table. Not an issue if all lines of table graphed.v10 - Load AURIN sample pics. Speedtest data loaded to AURIN geo-analytic platform; requires edu.au login.v9 - Add comparative Q2, Q3, Q4 Hist pic.v8 - Added Q4 data geojson. Add Q3, Q4 Hist pic.v7 - Rename to include Q2, Q3 in Title.v6 - Add Q3 20 data. Rename geojson AUS data as Q2. Add comparative Histogram. Calc in International.ipynb.v5 - add Jupyter Notebook inc Histograms. Hist is count of geo-locations avg download speed (unweighted by tests).v4 - added Melb choropleth (png 50Mpix) inc legend. (To do - add Melb.geojson). Posted Link to AURIN description of Speedtest data.v3 - Add super fast data (>100Mbps) less than 1% of data - 697 lines. Includes png of superfast.plot(). Link below to Google Maps version of superfast data points. Also Google map of first 100 data points - sample data. Geojson format for loading into GeoPandas, per Jupyter Notebook. New version of Jupyter Notebook, v.1.1.v2 - add centroids image.v1 - initial data load.** Future Work- combine Speedtest data with NBN Technology by location data (national map.gov.au); https://www.data.gov.au/dataset/national-broadband-network-connections-by-technology-type- combine Speedtest data with SEIFA data - socioeconomic categories - to discuss with AURIN.- Further international comparisons- discussed collaboration with Assoc Prof Tooran Alizadeh, USyd.
