spok-dataset is a dataset created to help correlate numbers belonging to Spok with their respective geographical regions.
This dataset was created in the week of May 2, 2022 - May 8, 2022 by checking 23.36 million numbers against Spok's validation CGI. It is meant to accompany an article I've published on HackerNoon.
I will not update this dataset going forward, and I don't encourage you to either. Spok's servers have already endured enough.
