Tools

• fema_dataframe_describe

  List tables and column schemas on a DataCanvas staged by fema_search_nfip. Call this before fema_dataframe_query to discover the exact table name, column names, and DuckDB data types needed to write valid SQL. Row count reflects what was actually staged — check truncated in the fema_search_nfip response to know whether the canvas holds the full matching set.

  shallow
• fema_dataframe_query

  Run a read-only SQL SELECT against a DataCanvas table staged by fema_search_nfip. Enables aggregation, GROUP BY, SUM/COUNT, time-series, and filtered analysis over the full NFIP claims result without re-fetching from the API. Call fema_dataframe_describe first to get the exact table name and column names needed for valid SQL. Only SELECT statements are allowed — DDL, DML, COPY, and file-reading functions are blocked.

  shallow
• fema_get_disaster

  Fetch all designated-area rows for a specific FEMA disaster by disaster number (e.g., 4781). Returns every county/municipality designated under the declaration along with programs activated, incident period, and state info. Use fema_search_disasters to find disaster numbers. The returned disaster_number chains to fema_get_public_assistance and fema_get_housing_assistance.

  shallow
• fema_get_housing_assistance

  Retrieve Individual Assistance (IA) housing data for a disaster by disaster number. Returns owner and/or renter breakdowns by county and ZIP code — valid registrations, total approved IHP amounts, repair/rental amounts, and inspection data. Use type to select owners, renters, or both (default). Use disaster_number from fema_search_disasters.

  shallow
• fema_get_public_assistance

  Retrieve Public Assistance (PA) funded project records for a disaster or state — shows where federal recovery money was obligated. Returns applicant, damage category, project size and status, federal share obligated, and total obligated amounts. Either disaster_number or state must be provided. Use disaster_number (from fema_search_disasters) to scope to a single declaration, or state to browse all PA projects for a state. PA projects are created only when the PA program is declared (pa_declared: true on the disaster).

  shallow
• fema_query_dataset

  Generic OData query against any OpenFEMA v2 dataset — the escape hatch for datasets the convenience tools do not cover (e.g., FimaNfipPolicies, IndividualAssistanceHousingRegistrantsLargeDisasters, FemaWebDeclarationAreas, PublicAssistanceApplicants). Accepts raw OData filter, select, orderby, and pagination parameters. For NFIP Policies, use propertyState (not state) as the state field — always include a county or ZIP filter to avoid timeout. The dataset name must match the exact OpenFEMA v2 entity name (case-sensitive, e.g., FimaNfipClaims). Unknown dataset names return an unknown_dataset error.

  shallow
• fema_search_disasters

  Search federal disaster declarations by state, incident type, declaration type, date range, and county. Returns deduplicated declaration-level summaries — each disaster number appears once with a designatedAreaCount showing how many counties/municipalities were designated. The disaster number is the chain key for fema_get_disaster, fema_get_public_assistance, and fema_get_housing_assistance. Use declaration_type to filter: DR (major disaster, most common), EM (emergency), FM (fire management). Date filters apply to the declaration date. Use fema_get_disaster to retrieve all designated-area rows for a specific declaration.

  shallow
• fema_search_nfip

  Search National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) claims data by state, county, ZIP code, and year range. Returns claim counts, amounts paid on building and contents, flood zones, and loss years. state is required — the full NFIP dataset is 2.7 million rows; unfiltered access is prohibited. When DataCanvas is enabled (CANVAS_PROVIDER_TYPE=duckdb) and results exceed the inline preview, the full result set is staged on a canvas for SQL aggregation via fema_dataframe_query. Use fema_dataframe_describe to inspect the staged table schema before writing SQL. Without canvas, results are returned inline up to the limit.
