geo

Static risk & context dossier for a US location.

Static risk & context dossier for a US location. Pass lat+lon or a US address (geocoded for you). Composes five authoritative, keyless federal sources into one answer an agent cannot derive from training: Census place context (county, state, census tract, congressional district), FEMA flood zone + Special-Flood-Hazard-Area status, USGS ASCE 7-16 seismic design parameters (Ss, S1, SDS, SD1, seismic design category, PGA), the nearest NOAA/GHCN climate station, and — when a zip is supplied — US Census ACS 5-year demographics. Each layer is isolated: one source failing does not fail the rest. This is the slow-moving structural-risk picture (siting, insurance, due diligence), distinct from real-time weather/earthquake conditions.
