Google is considering distributing Wi-Fi networks in towns and cities covered by its Google Fiber high-speed Internet service.
According to a Google's document circulating to 34 cities that are the next candidates to receive Google Fiber in 2015 " discussing our Wi-Fi plans and related requirements with your city as we move forward with your city during this planning process."
" We'd love to be able to bring Wi-Fi access to all of our Fiber cities, but we don't have any specific plans to announce right now."
Google sent the 34 cities that are next in line for Google Fiber a detailed request for information like addresses and description of building types, numerous geospatial data files containing information on streets, boundaries, rights of way, manholes, utility poles, zoning types and the condition of pavement across the city, and they have until May 1 to reply.
" This process will take some time, but we hope to have updates on which cities will get Fiber by the end of the year," the company says in the document.
