GLOBAL COVERAGE AUDIT · 2026-09-23
A wider map.
An honest count.
We check the records we can see, compare independent sources, and keep the remaining gaps visible. These are source observations and research candidates; they do not establish a complete census of operating data centers.
WHAT WAS CHECKED
Identifiers, locations,
and source overlap.
Wikidata instances of data center or its subclasses. Entities may represent organizations, computing centres or campuses. One-coordinate candidates are compared with both existing source layers using a 1 km great-circle radius; only the nearest five results are listed. Proximity is a review lead, not an identity match. Within the global OSM file, same-country pairs within 250 m are also flagged for campus/building review. Distance cannot establish duplicate identity. No candidates are automatically merged or added to facility totals.
- 0 duplicate identifiers and 0 invalid coordinates in the two checked files. All global observations reconcile with the jurisdiction register.
- 46 Wikidata candidates are close to an existing record. Nearness can mean the same campus, a different building, or a different organization; it does not verify identity.
- 114 candidates have no single usable location. Some entities describe organizations or computing networks rather than one facility.
- The U.S. comparison uses 4,713 national directory rows. Separately researched U.S. additions are outside this automated comparison, so an unmatched candidate can still exist elsewhere in Cloud Draw.
The global extract was refreshed for this audit. The U.S. directory was checked in its existing version; this does not certify its current operating status.
EXISTING OBSERVATIONS TO REVIEW
A building is not always a campus.
2,202 pairs of global observations lie within 250 m in the same country. These may be separate buildings, phases, or overlapping representations of one site. This is a review queue, not a duplicate count.

Classification checks
Name mentions a stamp-paper office. Verify the facility classification against the source; its data-center tag alone is insufficient.

These candidates are searchable leads, not new verified facilities. Owner and operator labels below are Wikidata claims; open each entity’s references before relying on them.
