- Centroid of Bexar County parcel 1350409 (NCB 16623 Block 7 Lot 1; owner Amazon Data Services Inc; situs 12807 Donop Rd; 48.901 geodesic acres, about 600 by 687 m) from the TxGIO parcel service. The TxGIO 9-1-1 address point for 12807 Donop Rd (140 m away) and the city's permit geocode for the address (193 m away) fall inside it. It locates the Amazon data-centre property that holds existing Building 1/A and permitted Building 2/B, not Building 2's footprint.
- Horizontal uncertainty
Not reported
Appraisal-district parcels carry no published positional accuracy; the centroid represents a 49-acre property whose vertices lie up to 440 m away, and the position of Building 2 within it is not published.

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.
