Project Background
North Carolina State University proposes to harmonize P-Index results across southern state boundaries and provide more robust factors in Indices. As these linkages occur across southern States, information can then be transferred to and from other regions (i.e., Heartland and Northeastern). This will allow continued coordination and communication with the other regions of the country, as well as the National P Index CIG Integration project.
