API access
Your AI client reaches FEMA National Risk Index through one ParcelOps MCP endpoint, so there is no separate key to hold for it and no per-source client to write. Reaching it takes no credentials of your own.

What this source cannot tell you
- ⚠ Anything outside United States counties and census tracts represented by FEMA NRI. A request past that edge comes back empty rather than approximated.
- ⚠ Which years it spans, because the covered period is not declared.
- ⚠ Anything FEMA National Risk Index v1.20 does not publish. ParcelOps returns this source as it stands and never fills a blank field from a different one.
- ⚠ NRI is a comparative screening index and does not predict whether a hazard will affect a specific parcel.
- ⚠ Expected annual loss, social vulnerability, and community resilience reflect model definitions and vintages that require local validation.
