Short answer

Your AI uses the get_tide_extremes tool to fetch specific tidal data for any coastal coordinate. You'll get exact timestamps and water levels for every high and low tide in the requested period. This data helps you plan coastal operations.

The results.

Where your data lands.

The AI handles the data retrieval so you can focus on the planning.

DATA

Precise tidal schedules

The AI pulls exact times and heights for high and low tides. You get a clean list of extremes for your specific location.

PLANNING

Coastal window analysis

Use the retrieved heights to determine safe windows for marine operations. Your AI identifies when water levels are too low or too high for your needs.

LOGS

Automated data records

The AI can format these tide extremes into a table or a list. You can then move this data into a sheet or a report.

HUMAN

Safety decisions

The AI provides the numbers, but you make the final call. You decide if the tide heights meet your safety requirements for a specific site.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

The AI acts as a bridge between your prompt and the marine weather service.

  1. Identify location

    Your agent parses your request to find the specific coastal coordinates or area you're interested in.

  3. Process heights

    The agent organizes the raw tide heights and timestamps into a readable format.
