Core-field coverage counts eight basic fields available in the Atlas. It is not an accuracy score or a measure of technical specification completeness. Individual evidence checks appear below.
Evidence by field
Evidence status applies to the named field and cited sources. “Not found” means those sources do not establish the fact; it does not establish absence.

- Capacity Not found in checked sources
- A separate current built/commissioned capacity allocation was not found for A1. Directory design specifications cannot fill the 69.8 MW difference between NEXTDC's Australian aggregate and named-site subtotal.
