Keyed by street address so metro and facility pages merge.1213Every field carries an extraction method in `methods` (e.g. `json-ld:PostalAddress`, `regex:it_mw_v1`, `attr:data-value+MW`, `lookup:city-country`) for provenance. Coordinates are only taken from JSON-LD / embedded JSON / map links published by the operator — never geocoded. Status defaults to `operational` unless the page uses pipeline wording (under construction / coming soon / planned).1415## Discovery1617- Sitemaps: `https://elementcritical.com/page-sitemap.xml`, `https://elementcritical.com/post-sitemap.xml`18- Include: `/data-centers/[a-z0-9-]+/$`, `elementcritical\.com/[a-z0-9-]+/$`19- Exclude: `\?`, `#`, `/(services|service-type|solutions|about|contact|careers|privacy|healthcare-colocation|data-centers)[a-z-]*/$`20- Classify: `/data-centers/[a-z0-9-]+/$` → facility_pages (facility_page); `elementcritical\.com/[a-z0-9-]+/$` → newsroom (press_release)2122Newsroom URLs (when configured) rely on the GenericConnector news fallback (press_release → `news_event` when data-center relevant).2324## Schedule & fetch2526- Schedule: facility_pages weekly, newsroom daily, sitemap weekly27- Fetch: L1→L2, 15 rpm, concurrency 2, robots.txt respected, max 20 premium credits/run. All pages are served at L1 (plain HTTP); `maxLevel` is capped at 2 so false-positive “blocked” heuristics (HubSpot / cookie-consent strings) never spend Scrapfly credits.2829## Quirks3031Facility pages /data-centers/<slug>/ publish a spec table (Location street/city/state/zip, property size, raised floor, utility power MW).
