What is the GDACS MCP Server?
Connect to GDACS (Global Disaster Alert and Coordination System) and monitor worldwide disaster activity through natural conversation — no API key needed.
What you can do
- Earthquake Tracking — Monitor earthquakes worldwide with magnitude filtering, depth data and impact estimates
- Cyclone Monitoring — Track tropical cyclones, hurricanes and typhoons with categories, wind speeds and forecast tracks
- Flood Alerts — Monitor flood events with affected population estimates and severity levels
- 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
- Subscribe to this server
- No API key needed — start monitoring immediately
- Explore global disaster data from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Emergency Managers — monitor real-time disaster alerts and coordinate response efforts
- Researchers — analyze disaster patterns, impact data and population exposure
- Journalists — discover breaking disaster news with verified data and impact estimates
- Insurance Professionals — assess catastrophe risk and estimate potential losses

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 Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
