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.
- Identity Source checked
- The operator identifies NEXTDC PH1 Port Hedland. Certification and location evidence are described separately.Checked 2026-09-11 · NEXTDC ↗
- Capacity Not found in checked sources
- A separate current built/commissioned capacity allocation was not found for PH1. Directory design specifications cannot fill the 69.8 MW difference between NEXTDC's Australian aggregate and named-site subtotal.Checked 2026-09-11 · NEXTDC ↗ · NEXTDC ↗
- Address Source checked
- Published street address checked against the cited primary source. Unit or floor is retained where supplied.Checked 2026-09-11 · NEXTDC ↗
- Coordinates Not found in checked sources
- NEXTDC publishes 17 Loreto Circuit, Port Hedland. OpenStreetMap maps Loreto Circuit but not the numbered building, and a street-only result is insufficient for a site marker, so the record shows the approximate town position until an operator map point or mapped building is available. The published address is retained for navigation.Checked 2026-11-03 · NEXTDC ↗
- Certification Not found in checked sources
- NEXTDC excluded this facility from its HCF coverage in its 2 December 2025 announcement. No named match appears in the official register checked 22 September 2026.Checked 2026-09-22 · NEXTDC ↗ · Australian Government, Department of Home Affairs ↗

Power basis not established
Operator identifies an operational facility. Commissioned IT capacity has not been separately reconciled; directory design MW is not used as live MW.
Government certification
Certification not verified
No current named HCF register match was found on 2026-09-22. NEXTDC explicitly excluded NEXTDC PH1 Port Hedland from its HCF coverage in its 2 December 2025 announcement.
What certification covers →Scope and context
- City map markers are approximate. No exact facility coordinates have been verified in this release.
- Technical details reported by Data Center Map are shown separately from the Atlas's primary-source observations.
Compute, workloads & commercial commitments
Site-specific workloads, GPU inventory and customer contracts are not established by the cited evidence. Electrical capacity and AI-ready specifications alone do not establish these details.
