MCP server for accessing geologic data with the Macrostrat API
概览
An MCP server providing access to the Macrostrat API from Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and any other MCP client. No API key required — the Macrostrat API is free and public. This Model Context Protocol (MCP) server enables AI assistants and applications to: - Query comprehensive geologic data and information provided by the Macrostrat API - Access geologic units, columns, minerals, timescales, and more - Get geologic map tiles that the LLM can interpret (questionable utility, but might be useful for some applications) - Analyze geologic data to improve geological understanding - Create graphics and perform data analysis from the data Users can run queries using natural language. A. Let me check the geological data for Nashville's location. View Result from find-units from macrostrat (local) 1. Mesoproterozoic Basement (1.6-1.1 billion years ago) - Igneous basement rocks (granite and rhyolite) - Part of the ancient North American craton

Geological History of Nashville, Tennessee
- Mesoproterozoic Basement (1.6-1.1 billion years ago)
- Igneous basement rocks (granite and rhyolite)
- Part of the ancient North American craton
- Early-Middle Cambrian (518-504 million years ago)
- Rome Formation: Mixed carbonate-siliciclastic sediments
- Shallow marine environment
- Part of the developing continental shelf
- Middle-Late Cambrian (504-498 million years ago)
- Conasauga Formation: Limestone and mixed sediments
- Continued marine deposition
- Alternating limestone and shale indicating fluctuating sea levels
- Late Cambrian-Early Ordovician (498-470 million years ago)
- Knox Dolomite: Massive dolomite sequence
- Extensive shallow marine platform
- Up to 1,200 meters thick
- Represents long period of stable marine conditions
- Middle-Late Ordovician (470-443 million years ago) Several important formations:
- Stones River Group (including Murfreesboro, Pierce, Lebanon Limestones)
- Nashville Group (including Hermitage, Bigby-Cannon, Catheys Formations)
- Primarily limestone deposits
- Rich in fossils
- Shallow marine environment
- Multiple cycles of sea level change
- Early-Middle Silurian (443-423 million years ago)
- Brassfield through Decatur Formations
- Continued marine limestone deposition
- Various marine environments from shallow to deeper water
- Middle Devonian-Early Mississippian (390-357 million years ago)
