Scope and context

Map location, when supplied, represents the city rather than a verified facility coordinate.
Do not add Datacom's colocation service within this campus as another physical data centre.
Technical details reported by Data Center Map are shown separately from the Atlas's primary-source observations.
Directory reconciliation: Directory labels the MEL1 parent Facility, but explicitly has Building 1 and Building 2 children. Atlas correctly models the aggregate as campus; preserve that scope.
Directory reconciliation: The public publisher withholds exact location. This match uses named identity only and does not use hidden embedded coordinates or addresses.
At least 25 MW of completed IT capacity is documented in the initial 2017 tranche and May 2023 expansion. Later 185 MW and 276+ MW campus headlines include expansion scope.
