Read the FCC 477 instructions.  The form is done online, and it’s easy except 
for the CSV attachments. 

 

With 40 customers and a small deployment you could probably get by doing it in 
Excel and looking up the census block and tract numbers by hand.  That’s not 
going to scale well though.  Long term you either need to set it up in a GIS 
package or farm it out to someone who can do that.

We have the polygons and I think shape files now.  There is a state map we keep 
up to date.  

I just need to know the mechanics, how often, which form, who do you send it 
to, how do you send it.

I do these if you want help. For the deployment, I would just need a polygon 
(KML from GE is fine) around the homes you pass. I can create a spatial query 
against the census blocks as I already have a spatial DB set up for this. If 
you need subscriptions as well I can do those but I'd need a bit more info. If 
you have a DB with the block data, you can do it yourself.

I have not yet filed a 477 on my new fiber startup.  But we only have about 40 
customers.  

What is a good way to start?
