- Volcanic Activity — Track volcanic eruptions with ash plume data and alert levels
- Wildfire Monitoring — Monitor wildfires with burned area estimates and affected populations
- Drought Tracking — Track drought events with severity levels and population impact
- Impact Estimates — Get population exposure, estimated fatalities and economic losses for each event
- Alert Levels — View color-coded alerts (red=high, orange=medium, green=low)
How it works

Frequently asked questions
Do I need an API key?
No! GDACS data is completely free and open. No authentication required. Just subscribe and start monitoring disasters.
What do the alert levels mean?
GDACS uses three alert levels: Green (low impact, local effects), Orange (medium impact, significant regional effects), Red (high impact, potentially catastrophic with international response needed).
How far back can I search for events?
You can search events from the past 1 to 30 days using the period or date_from/date_to parameters. For historical analysis, use date_from and date_to with specific dates.
How does LlamaIndex connect to MCP servers?
Use the MCP client adapter to create a connection. LlamaIndex discovers all tools and wraps them as query engine tools compatible with any LlamaIndex agent.
Can I combine MCP tools with vector stores?
Yes. LlamaIndex agents can query GDACS tools and vector store indexes in the same turn, combining real-time and embedded data for grounded responses.
Does LlamaIndex support async MCP calls?
Yes. LlamaIndex's async agent framework supports concurrent MCP tool calls for high-throughput data processing pipelines.
