The global number of internet users in was forecast to continuously increase between 2024 and 2029 by in total 1.3 billion users (+23.66 percent). After the fifteenth consecutive increasing year, the number of users is estimated to reach 7 billion users and therefore a new peak in 2029. Notably, the number of internet users of was continuously increasing over the past years.Depicted is the estimated number of individuals in the country or region at hand, that use the internet. As the datasource clarifies, connection quality and usage frequency are distinct aspects, not taken into account here.The shown data are an excerpt of Statista's Key Market Indicators (KMI). The KMI are a collection of primary and secondary indicators on the macro-economic, demographic and technological environment in up to 150 countries and regions worldwide. All indicators are sourced from international and national statistical offices, trade associations and the trade press and they are processed to generate comparable data sets (see supplementary notes under details for more information).Find more key insights for the number of internet users in countries like the Americas and Asia.

The purpose of this study was to conduct content and process evaluations of current internet safety education (ISE) program materials and their use by law enforcement presenters and schools. The study was divided into four sub-projects. First, a systematic review or "meta-synthesis" was conducted to identify effective elements of prevention identified by the research across different youth problem areas such as drug abuse, sex education, smoking prevention, suicide, youth violence, and school failure. The process resulted in the development of a KEEP (Known Elements of Effective Prevention) Checklist. Second, a content analysis was conducted on four of the most well-developed and long-standing youth internet safety curricula: i-SAFE, iKeepSafe, Netsmartz, and Web Wise Kids. Third, a process evaluation was conducted to better understand how internet safety education programs are being implemented. The process evaluation was conducted via national surveys with three different groups of respondents: Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force commanders (N=43), ICAC Task Force presenters (N=91), and a sample of school professionals (N=139). Finally, researchers developed an internet safety education outcome survey focused on online harassment and digital citizenship. The intention for creating and piloting this survey was to provide the field with a research-based tool that can be used in future evaluation and program monitoring efforts.

This data is used for a broadband mapping initiative conducted by the Washington State Broadband Office. This dataset provides global fixed broadband and mobile (cellular) network performance metrics in zoom level 16 web mercator tiles (approximately 610.8 meters by 610.8 meters at the equator). Data is projected in EPSG:4326. Download speed, upload speed, and latency are collected via the Speedtest by Ookla applications for Android and iOS and averaged for each tile. Measurements are filtered to results containing GPS-quality location accuracy. The data was processed and published to ArcGIS Living Atlas by Esri.AboutSpeedtest data is used today by commercial fixed and mobile network operators around the world to inform network buildout, improve global Internet quality, and increase Internet accessibility. Government regulators such as the United States Federal Communications Commission and the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission use Speedtest data to hold telecommunications entities accountable and direct funds for rural and urban connectivity development. Ookla licenses data to NGOs and educational institutions to fulfill its mission: to help make the internet better, faster and more accessible for everyone. Ookla hopes to further this mission by distributing the data to make it easier for individuals and organizations to use it for the purposes of bridging the social and economic gaps between those with and without modern Internet access.DataHundreds of millions of Speedtests are taken on the Ookla platform each month. In order to create a manageable dataset, we aggregate raw data into tiles. The size of a data tile is defined as a function of "zoom level" (or "z"). At z=0, the size of a tile is the size of the whole world. At z=1, the tile is split in half vertically and horizontally, creating 4 tiles that cover the globe. This tile-splitting continues as zoom level increases, causing tiles to become exponentially smaller as we zoom into a given region. By this definition, tile sizes are actually some fraction of the width/height of Earth according to Web Mercator projection (EPSG:3857). As such, tile size varies slightly depending on latitude, but tile sizes can be estimated in meters.For the purposes of these layers, a zoom level of 16 (z=16) is used for the tiling. This equates to a tile that is approximately 610.8 meters by 610.8 meters at the equator (18 arcsecond blocks). The geometry of each tile is represented in WGS 84 (EPSG:4326) in the tile field.The data can be found at: https://github.com/teamookla/ookla-open-dataUpdate CadenceThe tile aggregates start in Q1 2019 and go through the most recent quarter. They will be updated shortly after the conclusion of the quarter.Esri ProcessingThis layer is a best available aggregation of the original Ookla dataset. This means that for each tile that data is available, the most recent data is used. So for instance, if data is available for a tile for Q2 2019 and for Q4 2020, the Q4 2020 data is awarded to the tile. The default visualization for the layer is the "broadband index". The broadband index is a bivariate index based on both the average download speed and the average upload speed. For Mobile, the score is indexed to a standard of 25 megabits per second (Mbps) download and 3 Mbps upload. A tile with average Speedtest results of 25/3 Mbps is awarded 100 points. Tiles with average speeds above 25/3 are shown in green, tiles with average speeds below this are shown in fuchsia. For Fixed, the score is indexed to a standard of 100 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload. A tile with average Speedtest results of 100/20 Mbps is awarded 100 points. Tiles with average speeds above 100/20 are shown in green, tiles with average speeds below this are shown in fuchsia.Tile AttributesEach tile contains the following adjoining attributes:The year and the quarter that the tests were performed.The average download speed of all tests performed in the tile, represented in megabits per second.The average upload speed of all tests performed in the tile, represented in megabits per second.The average latency of all tests performed in the tile, represented in millisecondsThe number of tests taken in the tile.The number of unique devices contributing tests in the tile.The quadkey representing the tile.QuadkeysQuadkeys can act as a unique identifier for the tile. This can be useful for joining data spatially from multiple periods (quarters), creating coarser spatial aggregations without using geospatial functions, spatial indexing, partitioning, and an alternative for storing and deriving the tile geometry.LayersThere are two layers:Ookla_Mobile_Tiles - Tiles containing tests taken from mobile devices with GPS-quality location and a cellular connection type (e.g. 4G LTE, 5G NR).Ookla_Fixed_Tiles - Tiles containing tests taken from mobile devices with GPS-quality location and a non-cellular connection type (e.g. WiFi, ethernet).The layers are set to draw at scales 1:3,000,000 and larger.Time Period and update Frequency Layers are generated based on a quarter year of data (three months) and files will be updated and added on a quarterly basis. A /year=2020/quarter=1/ period, the first quarter of the year 2020, would include all data generated on or after 2020-01-01 and before 2020-04-01.

This archive contains the files submitted to the 4th International Workshop on Data: Acquisition To Analysis (DATA) at SenSys. Files provided in this package are associated with the paper titled "Dataset: Analysis of IFTTT Recipes to Study How Humans Use Internet-of-Things (IoT) Devices"

With the rapid development and usage of Internet-of-Things (IoT) and smart-home devices, researchers continue efforts to improve the ''smartness'' of those devices to address daily needs in people's lives. Such efforts usually begin with understanding evolving user behaviors on how humans utilize the devices and what they expect in terms of their behavior. However, while research efforts abound, there is a very limited number of datasets that researchers can use to both understand how people use IoT devices and to evaluate algorithms or systems for smart spaces. In this paper, we collect and characterize more than 50,000 recipes from the online If-This-Then-That (IFTTT) service to understand a seemingly straightforward but complicated question: ''What kinds of behaviors do humans expect from their IoT devices?'' The dataset we collected contains the basic information of the IFTTT rules, trigger and action event, and how many people are using each rule.
