Abstract Analysis Modeling and Simulation (AMS) Testbeds can make significant contributions in identifying the benefits of more effective, more active systems management, resulting from integrating transformative applications enabled by new data from wirelessly connected vehicles, travelers, and infrastructure. To this end, the Dynamic Mobility Applications (DMA) and Active Transportation and Demand Management (ATDM) Programs have jointly sponsored the planning of multiple AMS Testbeds to support the two programs in evaluating and demonstrating the system-wide impacts of deploying application bundles and strategies in an AMS environment. The purpose of this report is to document an initial screening of AMS Testbed locations that was conducted to identify seven to ten potential candidate locations that may be further down-selected in a future effort for developing AMS Testbeds to conduct an evaluation of DMA and ATDM applications and strategies. The criteria used for screening the testbed locations include: 1. geographic scope, 2. temporal scope, 3. temporal resolution, 4. multi-modal, 5. level of congestion, 6. multi-source, 7. calibrated AMS models, 8. ease of adaptability, and 9. existing deployments and or research. Based on the preliminary assessment, the following are the nine AMS testbed locations that may be considered for further down-selection as a testbed location to support AMS activities for DMA and ATDM Programs: 1. Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) San Diego, 2. ICM Dallas, 3.Research Data Exchange (RDE) Test Data Set Pasadena, 4. Connected Vehicle (CV) Testbed Anthem, 5. CV Testbed Palo Alto, 6. SHRP 2 C10 Sacramento, 7. Weather-Chicago, 8. CV Testbed Novi, and 9. SHRP 2 C10 Jacksonville.
