• geoprimitivesapi.geoprimitives.devGive it a latitude and longitude and it answers with what the nautical chart says about the water there: the depth range of the charted depth area containing the position, the nearest charted sounding and how far away it is, and the chart's own zone of confidence for that area. Parameters go in the query string: this is a GET, there is no body. NOT FOR NAVIGATION, stated first because it is a condition of using the source. This is derived from NOAA Electronic Navigational Charts and redistributed; it is not an official NOAA ENC and does not meet federal chart carriage regulations under 33 CFR 164 or SOLAS chapter V, which only charts from NOAA or a certified NOAA ENC distributor do. Every response repeats this under `disclaimer`. NOAA and NOAA ENC are registered trademarks of NOAA, which does not endorse this service. COVERAGE is 65 NOAA ENC cells of usage bands 3, 4 and 5 over five working areas of southeast and southcentral Alaska: Sitka Sound; Kasaan Bay and Clarence Strait; Metlakatla, Ketchikan and Revillagigedo Channel; Juneau, Gastineau Channel and Lynn Canal; and Cordova with eastern Prince William Sound. It is not statewide, it is not the whole coast, and the small-scale cells that would make it look wider were deliberately left out. The coverage check reads the coordinate, so it runs in the handler after payment rather than in front of the 402: a position off the charts is quoted like any other and then refused with outside_coverage. A refusal does not settle and nothing is charged, but it costs a signature and a round trip, so check the coverage first. Every response repeats it under `coverage`. NOTHING IS INTERPOLATED, and that is the difference between this and GET /v1/elevation. Terrain is a continuous surface and sampling it between pixels is legitimate; a chart is a set of assertions a hydrographer made, and averaging two of them invents a depth nobody surveyed. So `depthAreaMinimum` is DRVAL1 of the charted depth area the position falls inside, the Livechecked 11 Nov 2026, 19:52 UTCEvidence 1/4x402x402 Bazaar9 payers
• geoprimitivesapi.geoprimitives.devGive it a longitude and latitude inside the United States and it answers with the Census FIPS codes for that point: the 2-digit state code, the 5-digit county GEOID, and the GEOID of the congressional district. Parameters go in the query string: this is a GET, there is no body. The codes are the product and the names are a courtesy. A county GEOID is the join key to essentially every geography-keyed federal dataset -- the American Community Survey, BLS Local Area Unemployment Statistics, BEA regional accounts, CDC WONDER, HUD, USDA, FEMA -- and the state code is its first two digits, so one call gives you both keys already in the form those tables expect. County GEOID is also the first five digits of a tract GEOID (11 digits) and of a block group GEOID (12), so it is the prefix you would filter a tract-level extract down with. COVERAGE, stated up front because the shortfall is the point: this endpoint answers state, county and congressional district, and it does NOT answer tract, block group, place or ZCTA. That is a size limit, not an oversight, and it was measured rather than guessed. A national compacted H3 index of tracts is 3196 KiB gzipped and of block groups 5335 KiB, at a resolution already too coarse for either; the whole Worker has 3 MiB compressed to spend and most of that was gone before this route existed. Those four tiers need an object store behind the Worker and will arrive with one. Every response repeats this under `coverage`, so an agent never has to infer it from a missing field. In the meantime geocoding.geo.census.gov answers all seven tiers, free, authoritative, at the cost of a round trip and a dependency. VINTAGE: TIGER/Line 2025, congressional districts for the 119th Congress. It is on every response under `vintage` and it matters more here than almost anywhere else in this catalog, because TIGER is re-cut annually and districts move with redistricting, so a stale district code is a wrong answer a caller cannot detect from the outside.
