The Commission requires all incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs) to file shapefile maps of their service territories in a state (study area). Shapefiles are a commonly used, digitized, geographic information system (GIS) format. Accurate and accessible maps are essential to the legitimate distribution of universal service support to rural, high-cost carriers. After the shapefiles are uploaded into a web interface provided by the FCC, each ILEC must certify the accuracy of its study area. ILECs must also submit updated shapefile maps if their study area boundaries change, and must recertify the accuracy of the map every two years.
