National Map Product Search: Downloadable USGS Elevation, Boundary and Map Files (USGS)
usgstnm/search-products
Lists the downloadable products of one U.S. Geological Survey National Map dataset: title, format, extent, publication and update dates, file size in bytes, a metadata page and download links, plus the total number of matching products. Returns links and metadata only, never the files, which can be gigabytes. One page of up to 25 products per call, with an offset to read further. Filter by dataset, area (bounding box) and text. A filter that matches nothing returns zero products rather than an error. U.S. Geological Survey data, passed through unmodified and served by Eden Engine; not an official USGS product.
Price
$0.0026 per call
You pay the price shown. If a call turns out to cost more than its quote, you pay the actual price, capped at twice the quote. No monthly minimum. Top-ups start at $5.
Data source
Source: U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), The National Map. USGS-authored data are in the U.S. public domain per usgs.gov/information-policies-and-instructions/copyrights-and-credits. Served by Eden Engine; not an official USGS product.
Use it
Five steps: search, inspect, learn, run, settle. No per-tool setup; your agent reaches this tool through the meta-tools it already has.
Connect once and your AI can find and run this tool, and any other it needs.
// 1. search: find the tool
omnial_search({ query: "what you need" })
// 2. inspect: price and input schema
omnial_inspect({ tool: "usgstnm/search-products" })
// 3. learn: read the usage guide at runtime
omnial_learn({ tool: "usgstnm/search-products" })
// 4. run: price the exact call first, then run it
omnial_execute({ tool: "usgstnm/search-products", input: { /* see input_schema */ }, dry_run: true })
omnial_execute({ tool: "usgstnm/search-products", input: { /* ... */ } })
// 5. settle: the call is charged when it finishes, nothing to doNot connected yet? Point your MCP client at https://mcp.eden-engine.com/mcp, then copy a config for your client.
