5. Know the limits.

  • Records are a research collection, not a census of every data center.
  • "Status unclear" means the sources do not establish the current stage.
  • Rings on the map are county level; only solid dots are reviewed sites.
  • A concern item is a documented public record or report, not an Atlas finding.
  • Report a correction through the link on any record.
