Cell
Site readiness iSix questions an industrial recruiter or data-center developer asks first. Each row is a status from the underlying module's own tier, the value, and how finely it was measured; the rule is printed in the row.Measured from public records, published design standards and current imagery at this point and its 1,000-acre window.Rows marked "not assessed" are stated, not hidden.
Hazard & design conditions
Economic development iWhat a recruiter needs before the site visit: certified status, sector fit, access, the criteria this site already meets against published data-center standards, and which gaps are fundable site works versus design conditions a tenant engineers for.Nothing here is a score; counts are of criteria assessed against stated rules.
Serving infrastructure iDistances to the nearest transmission line, substation (where map features were measured), paved road, interstate and rail.Line and road maps.Proximity is not capacity — queue and hosting capacity are listed under "not assessed".
Utility view iWhat the serving utility needs for a load-interconnection conversation: line and substation proximity, vegetation share along the window, lightning ground-flash density, and how cooling load grows under projected heat.Cooling degree-days are coarse (from monthly means); growth is the ensemble median with its model spread.

What imagery shows now measured
Data-center site criteria iEach row names the published standard or practice it comes from, Earthflow's value at this site, a status from the printed rule, and why it matters for a data center. Statuses are never blended into a score.ANSI/TIA-942-C site-selection guidance; ASCE 7-22 loads at Risk Category IV; NFPA 780 / IEC 62305-2 lightning; ASHRAE TC 9.9 thermal guidelines; FM Global practice."Design input" rows carry a value the engineer uses, not a pass/fail.
Lightning strike frequency — your building envelope
N = Ng × Ad × Cd, Ad = L·W + 6H(L+W) + 9πH² (IEC 62305-2 Annex A). Ng is the ground-flash density at this site. Compare N with the tolerable frequency for your protection level.
Inlet-air climate — monthly mean temperature
Future conditions iProjected change from a multi-model downscaled climate ensemble, applied to this site's present-day values. Columns are periods; each quantity has two pathway rows. Cells show the ensemble median with the 10th–90th percentile of models.Present-day rainfall from the live design-rainfall point value; change factors at ~16 mi, one value per site.Scenario-conditional projected change under a named emissions pathway — not a forecast.

Site data explorer iEvery field the Environmental Intelligence Layer returned for this point that has a real basis, grouped by property. Solar-plant economics, composite scores, uncited cost estimates and source metadata are excluded.Names describe the property measured; provenance is kept in the analysis record.
How this page was built
From a coordinate to a site-readiness answer
Five steps. Nothing is scored: each step hands the next a value with a stated basis, and the last one compares it with the standard a data center is designed to.
The two calls to the Environmental Intelligence API
One call describes the point. The second splits the same window into cells and measures what can honestly be measured cell by cell — so clearing, structures and standing water are located inside the window rather than averaged over it.
The physics modules that ran at this site
Each module turns public observation into one engineering quantity for this location. They run in parallel on every site; a module that returns partial data reports itself degraded rather than filling the gap.
Five kinds of statement, never blended
Every value on this page carries one of these badges, so a measurement is never mistaken for a model output or a projection for a forecast.
