Current Stage Dataset

New Zealand Data Centre Project and Consent Intelligence

This page now reflects the current working dataset rather than only the original four anchor cases. It combines the broader New Zealand project pool with consent relevance, controversy signals, official reference capture where available, source links, and confidence grading.

PurposeBuild a live New Zealand data centre universe, then layer consent intelligence, controversy, and failure analysis on top.
Data disciplineNo official reference is invented. If a public government reference is not confirmed, it is left blank.
Current stateThis is a usable working dataset, not the final all-of-New-Zealand master database.
