This data call returns a set of all the measured network bandwidths for a certain resource.

The data is based on active host measurements collected by the Measurement Lab platform (M-Lab).

The bandwidth of a host is determined as the maximum network throughput value for all the tests/measurements performed by that host during the specified time period.
The value of the measurement throughput is computed as the number of octets transmitted between the host and the chosen M-Lab server, divided by their transfer time.

The measurements are commonly ran using the M-Lab Network Detection Tool (NDT), available as a stand-alone network speed test application, and also included in a popular BitTorrent client.
Note that due to the nature the data is processed data can be delayed for around two days at the beginning of each month!

The results published, including host details are covered by the M-Lab acceptable use policy.

Parameters

Key	Value	Info	Required
resource	IPv4 Prefix, IPv4 address or 2-digit ISO-3166 country code (e.g. "at","de"...)	Defines the resource that the query is performed for.	YES
starttime	ISO8601 or Unix timestamp	Defines the starttime for the query	NO - default: (endtime - 7d)
endtime	ISO8601 or Unix timestamp	Defines the endtime for the query	NO - default: latest time there is M-Lab data available

Output

Data

Key	Info
bandwidths	List of observed bandwidths in Mbps units. One value per host.
query_starttime	Defines the start of the time interval covered in the query.
query_endtime	Defines the end of the time interval covered in the query.
resource	Defines the resource used in the query.
