 If you need to query from an application using a service account (`@developer.gserviceaccount.com`), email [support@measurementlab.net](mailto:support@measurementlab.net) so M-Lab can add it to M-Lab Discuss manually. Ensure the account has the **BigQuery User**, **BigQuery Job User**, and **BigQuery Data Viewer** IAM roles on the `measurement-lab` project.
 
-## Key Datasets
-
-| Dataset | Description |
-|---------|-------------|
-| `ndt` | NDT speed tests — use `ndt7_union` for general analysis |
-| `ndt_raw` | Raw NDT archives including traceroute and TCP info |
-| `msak` / `msak_raw` | Multi-stream throughput measurements |
-| `wehe_raw` | App-specific traffic differentiation tests |
-
-For most use cases, start with `measurement-lab.ndt.ndt7_union`.

-Average download speed by country for the last 30 days:
+For speed test results, you can start with the `measurement-lab.ndt.ndt7_union` table.
+For example, for the average download speed by country for the last 30 days:

-## Unified Views vs. Raw Tables
-
-M-Lab provides both raw tables and cleaned **unified views**:
-
-- `measurement-lab.ndt.ndt7_union` — **recommended** for most analysis; quality-filtered, includes M-Lab-managed and Host-Managed server data
-- `measurement-lab.ndt.ndt7` — M-Lab-managed servers only
-- `measurement-lab.ndt.ndt7_dynamic` — Host-Managed servers only
-- `measurement-lab.ndt_raw.*` — unfiltered 1-to-1 archives; use only if you need test failures or custom quality logic
-
-The unified views exclude tests shorter than 9 seconds, tests with less than 8 KB transferred, and M-Lab's own monitoring traffic.

 ## Query Costs and Partition Pruning
 
-The NDT7 table is large (~5 TB/month of new data). **Always** filter by `DATE(a.TestTime)` to use BigQuery's partition pruning:
