UK Environmental Intelligence MCP Server

Use Studio chat to drive this server — credentials stay in your workspace.

Full UK environmental monitoring and weather intelligence. Combines Environment Agency real-time flood warnings, river levels, rainfall, water quality, bathing water, groundwater, hydrology, ecology, and catchment data with Met Office weather forecasts, ground station observations, and National Grid carbon intensity. Enables cross-source environmental risk assessments, flood monitoring, and climate-informed decision making for any UK location.

Domain knowledge for UK Environmental Intelligence — workflow patterns, data models, and gotchas for your AI agent.

UK Environmental Intelligence

EA monitoring (open data, no auth), Met Office forecasts/observations (free API keys each), carbon intensity (open).

Workflows

  1. Flood risk: Catchment station search (by location) → river level readings → active flood warnings → rainfall gauge readings → weather forecast for incoming rain.
  2. Bathing water safety: Search bathing sites → compliance classification → sample results → upstream water quality points → beach weather forecast.
  3. Environmental profile: Catchment discovery near postcode → flood warnings → groundwater levels → bathing water → water quality → ecology → carbon intensity for region.

Gotchas

  • Two separate flood systems: Flood monitoring (stations + level/flow readings, 15-min updates) vs flood warnings (alerts with severity 1–4). Different providers, different data models. Use warnings for "is there risk?" and monitoring for "what are actual levels?"
  • Hydrology ≠ flood monitoring: Separate EA systems with different station IDs. Hydrology uses measure notation IDs — get station first, then request readings by measure.
  • Water quality determinands: Hundreds of measurement types. Search the determinand codelist first to find the right code before querying observations.
  • Geographic filtering: Most EA tools take lat, long, dist (km). Met Office takes latitude, longitude. Use catchment tools as the starting point when the user gives a place name.
  • Bathing water IDs: Use eubwid (EU bathing water ID), not the sampling point notation. Samples are May–September only.
  • Carbon intensity regions: 14 GB regions (1–14). Omit region for national figures. Updates every 30 minutes.
  • Large result sets: Use geographic filters, date ranges, and pagination. Bulk station listings return thousands of results.
