Connects Claude to NASA's Earth Observatory Natural Event Tracker API for real-time data on wildfires, storms, floods, volcanoes, and other natural events worldwide. Exposes six tools: query active or closed events with geographic coordinates, fetch individual events by ID, get GeoJSON output for direct map rendering, and list categories, sources, and visualization layers. Useful when you need to monitor ongoing environmental events, build dashboards around natural disasters, or integrate live Earth observation data into analysis workflows. Runs through Pipeworx's gateway with optional natural language querying via ask_pipeworx instead of direct tool calls.
NASA EONET MCP — Earth Observatory Natural Event Tracker
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 673+ live data sources.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
events | List natural events (active / closed) with category, geometry, and source links. |
get_event | Fetch a single event by EONET id. |
geojson | Same as events but returns GeoJSON FeatureCollection (good for direct map rendering). |
list_categories | EONET category reference. |
list_sources | Official sources EONET aggregates. |
list_layers | Visualization layer reference (mapping the events to imagery layers). |
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"nasa-eonet": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/nasa-eonet/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Nasa Eonet data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
