What it does
Given a latitude/longitude, this MCP server:
- Fetches 30m satellite elevation data
- Runs AI super-resolution to produce 10m terrain (3× detail enhancement)
- Computes 6 terrain analytics metrics including the Site Intelligence Score
Metrics
- flow_direction — water drainage direction per cell (D8 algorithm)
- flow_accumulation — upstream drainage count
- twi — Topographic Wetness Index (saturation tendency)
- erosion_risk — soil erosion susceptibility [0-1]
- runoff_potential — surface water runoff likelihood [0-1]
- site_intelligence_score — composite environmental risk [0-1]
Site Intelligence Score
A composite metric combining TWI, erosion risk, and runoff potential:
- 0.0–0.2: Low risk
- 0.2–0.4: Moderate
- 0.4–0.6: Elevated
- 0.6–0.8: High
- 0.8–1.0: Critical
Installation
