HELIOSOpen AI Infrastructure Observatory
Static snapshot. This site serves two different things: 1,853 data centres reported by OpenStreetMap contributors nationwide, and 13 sites Helios infers from Arizona parcel records, exported on July 29, 2026. The first is a map of what has been recorded; the second is an argued hypothesis with an evidence chain. This is a point-in-time export, not a live view. See meta.json or the methodology.

    Title is held by 2500 WEST FRYE ROAD OWNER LLC, whose name shows single-purpose-entity characteristics (pass-through legal form (LLC)). This is a weak signal only: project-specific entities are routine in ordinary commercial real estate and imply no particular parent.

    Dedicated substation proximityCalculatedStanding condition

    Unnamed substation tagged 69 kV lies 25 m from the site boundary, close enough for a dedicated connection to be practical. Proximity is a locational precondition, not evidence that this substation serves the site.

What this assumes

Power density is an industry assumption, not a property of this site. Helios does not know the building footprint, rack density or how much of the assembled land will be built on.

Estimated power x assumed cooling water intensity.

What this assumes

Cooling type is not recorded in any source Helios ingests. A closed-loop or air-cooled design approaches zero water use; evaporative cooling can exceed a gallon per kWh. The band is wide because the practice is.
