mcp-macrostrat
Macrostrat MCP — geologic map / column / unit data for North America and beyond.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1394+ live data sources.
Tools
Tool | Description |
| Find geologic rock units from Macrostrat by location + age, by stratigraphic name, or by lithology. Provide lat+lng (optionally with age in millions of years, Ma), or a strat_name (e.g. "Hell Creek"), or a lith (e.g. "granite"). Returns units with formation/group, stratigraphic column, bottom/top ages (Ma) and time intervals, lithology, and max thickness. Keyless. North America and beyond. |
| List Macrostrat stratigraphic columns near a geographic point. Provide lat and lng (decimal degrees). Returns the columns covering that location with column name, regional group, coordinates, unit count, and area. Keyless. |
| Look up Macrostrat lithology definitions by name (e.g. "granite", "limestone") returning lith_id, name, type, group, and class; omit lith to list all lithologies (capped at 50 results).Returns lithology id, name, type, group, and class. Keyless. |

Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"macrostrat": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/macrostrat/mcp"
}
}
}Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Macrostrat data" })The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
