Truly prospective testing for a multitude of forecasts in an unbiased and reproducible way requires a set of rules to be obeyed by each model as well as a cyber-infrastructure: the testing center. These rules encompass free parameters, e.g., the testing area and grid, forecast periods, magnitude ranges, earthquake catalogs provided to the models and used for testing, and declustering. A combination of these free parameters defines a class of models. Within RELM we distinguish between...
