search_sources

Search the catalogue of public data sources (weather, water, hazards, flights, ships, energy, filings, trade, .

Potential side effects

get_source

One catalogue entry in full.

Inferred read-only

list_places

Named places the fetchers read for, with their upstream ids (CO-OPS station, USGS gauge, eBird region) and tags.

Inferred read-only

get_readings

Fetch current readings from one source, each with value, unit, a one-line summary, place and provenance (source, URL, fetch time, licence).

Inferred read-only

list_datasets

Static public datasets this server holds as GeoJSON (wildfire burn perimeters, public-land share by county, federal campgrounds, fire-weather stations), with source, licence, feature count and parts (one per state, or "all").

Inferred read-only

get_dataset_part

The URL of one part of a dataset as GeoJSON, plus its description.

Inferred read-only

list_layers

Map layers this server can draw as GeoJSON, with unit, source, licence, whether it is available here, and how to read it.

Inferred read-only

get_layer

One map layer as a GeoJSON FeatureCollection: one point per place with the reading on the date (else the latest observed before it, never a guess), or one point per event for event layers.
