AccessAppalachia: Broadband Opportunities E-Comm Ohio 2000-2001 general business survey indicates that Ohio's total network connectivity has increased over 150% in the past year. Almost all Ohio cities have more than doubled their total available bandwidth in the past year. Cable modem and DSL rollout schedules are very aggressive. 79% of Ohioans today live in an area with broadband service. On June 1, 2001, the Governor's Office of Appalachia initiated a $270,000 study coordinated by the Ohio Supercomputer Center to 1.) provide a network technology assessment of Appalachia, 2) analyze citizen and business usage of the Internet, and 3) to develop a network infrastructure master plan.

Partner organizations are working within the region on the "digital divide" issue and "transitioning into the new economy."
