ARGUS · DATA CENTER EDITION

Institutional-grade site selection for hyperscale and colocation.

Argus was originally engineered for institutional data center site evaluation. The same probabilistic asset-modeling engine that scores residential parcels for listing probability scores commercial sites for data center suitability — across power, fiber, water, climate, and entitlement risk.

CORE SCORING VECTORS

  • Power capacity — utility availability, grid headroom, substation proximity
  • Fiber density — carrier diversity, dark fiber routes, latency to peering
  • Water rights — cooling capacity, reuse potential, drought exposure
  • Climate — ambient temperature, free-cooling hours, hazard risk
  • Entitlement risk — zoning, NIMBY history, permit velocity
  • Land cost + total cost of operation modeling

USE CASES

  • Hyperscale operator new-market site evaluation
  • Colocation provider expansion site selection
  • REIT acquisition pipeline scoring
  • Power utility load-prediction modeling
  • Investor due diligence on existing data center assets
  • Municipal economic development site marketing
SAME ENGINE · DIFFERENT VERTICAL The Argus residential edition powers a real estate intelligence platform for individual agents and brokerages. Different signal set, identical underlying probabilistic asset-modeling architecture. Both verticals share the data flywheel — every closed transaction across either vertical recalibrates the model.
