Testbed

The PRAISys team has established four testbeds as follows. All testbed data are collected from online databases and processed by the PRAISys team.

  1. Virtual Testbed (New Jersey)











  2. Lehigh Valley (Pennsylvania)










  3. South Florida (Florida)













  4. Florida Panhandle (Florida)









The table below presents how PRAISys-related studies have analyzed infrastructure data and socioeconomic data in the four testbeds.
