Project Description
The Woodstock WiFi project has been created to install a PTP node mesh on Woodstock Blvd between SE 39th Ave and SE 57th Ave (the primary commercial strip of Woodstock) using the Sky Pilots that were recovered from the defunct MetroFi project.

Strategy
Working with businesses along the defined boulevard boundaries and the Woodstock Business Association, PTP will deploy Sky Pilots and an appropriate back haul. Each radio location requires a roof w/access and power. Only one site will need to provide a backhaul termination point. With the help of PTP volunteers and individual businesses, the mesh will be deployed. Each zone represents a different need potentially for mesh density, and possibly separate bandwidth (to be discussed!)
