3) FracTracker Alliance / https://www.fractracker.org/2025/07/national-data-centers-tracker/
While there are said to be over 5,500 existing data centers in the United States based on maps from CoreSite, Datacenters.com, Baxtel, and Datacentermap, these companies do not share their datasets, and strictly forbid scraping of their data. FracTracker Alliance’s tool fills in a gap in traditional infrastructure directories,
providing spatial and facility information to anyone interested in the
environmental, regulatory, and equity impacts of data center growth.
This tool is valuable not only to researchers, but also to community
members, journalists, and policy advocates working to stay ahead of
unregulated or underreported development. See where data centers are operating, permitted, or proposed across the U.S.—and how they impact your community via map and also spreadsheet

5) Data Center Map Launched in 2007, first of its kind and has become an industry "go-to" resource
https://www.datacentermap.com/usa/ohio/
Data originates from multiple sources, primarily:
- Operators: Data center operators and service providers use Data Center Map as a marketing tool, to promote their data centers, networks and services to potential clients. They have direct access to add and update listings.
- External sources: We monitor multiple external databases, to identify missing or changed listings. They are automatically queued for manual review.
- Manual sourcing: We manually identify operators that we are missing and manually add them to our database.
- End-users: End-users send us tips and requests, about missing or outdated listings, that we manually handle.
