The WTTool platform was built and is maintained by the Wireless Networks for Smart Systems (WN4SS) lab in the Department of Electrical Engineering at the University at Buffalo. This platform is designed to be used by wireless networking researchers to create and study more realistic networks.

Users of this site can create network topologies over the Google Maps API, providing a means to harness real geographical data to enhance the realism of the network. Further, this application provides a no-code implementation of Network Simulator 3 (NS3), allowing users to conduct powerful simulations without needing expertise in the NS3 codebase or even proficiency in any coding language. Finally, users can visualize the performance of their network as a heatmap over the Google Maps API, unlocking key insights into their topology that may otherwise be overlooked.

Altogether, WTTool offers a "one-stop-shop" for the study of a realistic wireless network from start to finish.
