This repository maintains a set of EUA datasets which we collected from real-world data sources. The datasets are publicly released to facilitate research in Edge Computing. Feel free to contact us if you have any comments or questions. We would love to hear from you on ideas to improve the datasets.

All the data is in Australia region.

• edge-servers folder: contains datasets of edge server locations.
• users folder: contains datasets of user location.

Below is an example of edge servers with their coverages and end-users.

(The map was generated by Python and Google Maps API.)
