Observed surface

Base URL: https://r3.smarthealthit.org
Category: Reference and test servers
Availability: answered 10 of 10 checks so far; availability is reported once 14 observations exist
Vantage agreement: reachable from all 3 vantages, which are 3 hosts on one network (github-actions): one network's view sampled 3 times, not 3 independent networks

Interpretation

A grade describes two public discovery documents at one point in time. It does not inspect patient data, authenticated behavior, or clinical quality.
