Field notes
GroundCurrent organizes projects by location, development stage, capacity, and evidence status, with individual records linked to document counts. The homepage distinguishes documented projects from rumors and warns that many entries are auto-detected and not yet editor-reviewed. Its activity feed also surfaces reported proposals, public-hearing items, and approval events, giving the tracker a local-government monitoring layer rather than functioning as a simple map.
