Questions

Where does this come from?

Kidston Solar Project Phase One is listed by AEMO Generation Information, the Clean Energy Regulator (CER). Capacity is AEMO's AC figure where AEMO lists the farm, else Geoscience Australia's, else the CER's installed capacity. No source gives this farm's own location, so the map places it at the centre of its postcode.

How are sheep, cattle and crops checked?

Records are found by automated web search and confirmed by code checks plus two independent automated classifiers; no person reviews them. A quote is shown only when its page is online, the quote appears on it word for word, the page names this farm close to the quote, and both classifiers agree on whether it says sheep, cattle or crops, now or planned. Descriptions of the land before the farm was built are not shown. "No public record" means nothing was found, not that there is none. Agrivoltaics, or agrisolar, means producing solar power and farming on the same land; this site lists what public pages say and does not rate any farm.
