DMAP-AI MCP Server

Drought Monitoring and Analysis Platform — Model Context Protocol Server

DMAP-AI is a remote MCP server by AgriMetSoft LLC that exposes drought monitoring and analysis tools to AI assistants — including Claude, ChatGPT, and any MCP-compatible client. It provides SPI tables, drought severity event detection, wavelet scalogram analysis, and drought periodicity diagnostics over real climate data (NASA POWER and ERA5).

Quick Connect

Tools

All tools are read-only (readOnlyHint: true, destructiveHint: false). They fetch and compute drought diagnostics from real climate data. No user data is written or stored.

debug_ping

Confirms the server is live and returns the current tool version and available free tools.

Input:  none
Output: server status, tool version, available tools list

run_spi_table

Returns a Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) table for a given location and time period.

Input:
  latitude        float    e.g. 42.03
  longitude       float    e.g. -93.62
  start_date      string   YYYY-MM-DD  (default: 1981-01-01)
  end_date        string   YYYY-MM-DD  (default: 2024-12-31)
  baseline_start  int      (default: 1981)
  baseline_end    int      (default: 2024)
  spi_scale       int      1–48 months  (default: 12)
  data_source     string   "nasa_power" | "era5"  (default: nasa_power)
  step            string   "yearly" | "monthly"   (default: yearly)
  yearly_method   string   "jan_dec_totals"       (default)
  category_scheme string   "classic_spi" | "usdm_style" | "percentile_band" | "kmeans"
  max_rows        int      (default: 1000)

Output: SPI table with date, precipitation, SPI value, and drought category per row

Example prompt:

"Show me the SPI-12 table for Ames, Iowa from 1981 to 2024."

run_drought_severity_events

Detects and returns drought events (start, end, duration, minimum SPI, magnitude) using a configurable severity threshold.

Input:
  latitude / longitude / start_date / end_date / baseline_start / baseline_end
  spi_scale       int      (default: 12)
  data_source     string   "nasa_power" | "era5"
  step / yearly_method / category_scheme
  severity_threshold  string  SPI threshold, e.g. "-0.99", "-1.5"  (default: -0.99)

Output: drought events table (start date, end date, duration, min SPI, magnitude)

Example prompt:

"Find all drought events in Ames, Iowa from 1981 to 2024 using SPI-12 and a threshold of -1.0."

run_wavelet_scalogram

Runs a continuous wavelet transform and returns a compact time–period power matrix (scalogram), highlighting high-power drought zones.

Input:
  latitude / longitude / start_date / end_date / baseline_start / baseline_end
  spi_scale       int      (default: 12)
  data_source     string   "nasa_power" | "era5"
  step / yearly_method
  max_periods     int      downsampled period axis limit  (default: 24)
  max_times       int      downsampled time axis limit    (default: 60)

Output: compact scalogram matrix, top high-power cells, period and time axes

Example prompt:

"Run a wavelet scalogram for SPI-12 in Ames, Iowa from 1981 to 2024 and show the high-power zones."

run_drought_periodicity_analysis

Computes the global wavelet spectrum and identifies dominant and secondary drought periods (cycles) for a location.

Input:
  latitude / longitude / start_date / end_date / baseline_start / baseline_end
  spi_scale       int      (default: 12)
  data_source     string   "nasa_power" | "era5"
  step / yearly_method

Output: dominant period, top ranked periods by global power, global wavelet spectrum

Example prompt:

"Use DMAP-AI to run global wavelet analysis for SPI-12 in Ames, Iowa from 1981 to 2024. Then explain the dominant period."
