Compute Equity Atlas
National data center tracker

Data center and compute infrastructure activity across the United States.

The map separates evidence classes: terracotta diamonds are verified publication records, hollow brown diamonds are source-backed research candidates positioned only at Census locality/county centroids, blue circles are source-backed exact coordinates, dashed blue rings are Census address-range geocodes (not rooftop or surveyed coordinates), hollow blue squares are canonical locality centroids, gray rings are source-reference locations whose operating status is not verified, and small ochre dots provide regional research context.

What the Atlas shows

Follow projects from national context to local evidence.

Compute Equity Atlas connects public records, project announcements, permits, infrastructure signals and civic evidence into state-by-state views of data center and compute infrastructure development across the United States. The national map is the starting point: see known activity, then open the state research behind it.

Projects and development signals

Explore documented projects, proposed development, construction activity, ownership and other source-backed project signals organized by state and place.

Power, water and infrastructure

Understand the infrastructure context around compute development, including evidence connected to electric power, utilities, water and other enabling systems when supported by sources.

Permits and civic process

Connect projects to planning, zoning, economic-development, special-district and other civic records so local decision-making is easier to follow.

Sources, changes and gaps

See evidence state and research gaps instead of treating missing information as a negative fact. Historical observations are preserved as projects and public records change.

Find what is happening near you

Start on the national map, then follow your state.

Use Compute Equity Atlas to discover documented compute infrastructure activity near you, identify projects or topics that may affect your region, understand the institutions involved, and follow the underlying evidence. The platform is intended to help residents, researchers, journalists, public officials, developers and infrastructure stakeholders build a clearer local picture from source-linked information.

Research standard

Evidence first. Sources visible. Corrections possible.

The Atlas separates observed evidence from interpretation. Conflicting or changing claims can remain in the research history rather than being silently overwritten, and unresolved gaps remain visible. Read the methodology to understand how project, civic and infrastructure evidence moves from research into published state intelligence.
