Columbus, Ohio — NBC4 compiled and published an interactive map listing 172 verifiable data-center projects across the state, noting that commonly cited totals near 200 often include duplicate entries or unverified proposals. The resource includes projects confirmed by company statements, multiple news reports or public records, and omits at least four facilities that companies have confirmed but whose addresses have not been publicized. NBC4 also noted that mapping is difficult because some operators do not identify facility locations on websites or public maps.

Columbus, Ohio — NBC4 released the map amid community concern about siting near neighborhoods and farms, resource use such as water and electricity, and alleged health effects. The map shows many smaller facilities tucked inside office buildings in city centers as well as large campus projects in rural areas. CoreWeave operates data centers in Cincinnati, Columbus and Lebanon but keeps addresses private, and Crane LLC has announced a project without detailing its location. NBC4 said users can zoom in and click marked projects for more information and that the map will be updated as new details become available.
