York Energy CenterPA · EIA 55524
USDA / USGS NAIP · Source-stated location date 2022-07-20
Source-stated imagery date for this location: 2022-07-20 (service_stated). The service returned 13 overlapping catalog items at this frame's centre; this date is the FIRST item's. IDENTIFY DOES NOT ESTABLISH WHICH CATALOG ITEM PRODUCED THE SERVED FRAME — A CATALOG ITEM AT A POINT IS NOT NECESSARILY THE ITEM THAT MADE THE IMAGE. Read it as 'the source states this imagery date for this location', NOT as this frame's capture date.
Plant identity: EIA-860 monthly filings (plant name as filed). The image is centered on the filed coordinate.

About Remora
Plant records and their sources.
Information about a power plant is spread across public filings and datasets. Remora brings those records together around the facility they describe.
The sample keeps source notes, reporting periods, and calculation details alongside the plant information, so readers can check where a figure came from.
Remora is being developed for people researching power plants, whether for their work or to learn about a local facility.
Inside the database
What a plant record contains.
Ownership & operations
The ownership record shows three filed generator observations for EIA plant 511, with reported shares, source notes and date limitations. It does not establish current ownership.
Sources & context
Source notes, reporting periods, and aerial imagery accompany the sample record.
Sources & methods
How to read a record.
Check the source, reporting period, and calculation notes before comparing figures.
Where the information comes from
Plant identity and generator capacities in this sample come from the U.S. Energy Information Administration's EIA-860 program. The aerial view comes from the NAIP imagery identified beneath it.
Different fields may describe different years. Reporting periods and imagery dates remain attached to the information they describe.
How to read the evidence
Information reported by a source is distinguished from corroborated findings, calculations, and inferences. The strength of a claim depends on the evidence behind it.
Model-assisted annotations, where shown, are identified as interpretations of imagery.
What a missing answer means
Coverage varies by plant and topic. An unavailable answer describes a gap in the records held; it does not establish that an event, relationship, or facility does not exist.
Dates on filings and imagery are part of their context. An older record should not be read as a statement of present conditions.
Access and reuse
Remora is being developed as an open-access resource. Refer to the underlying source when checking a claim or reusing material; access to a record does not replace its source-specific terms.
