# Global Hazards - Hazard Exposure Screen

> Global Hazards - Hazard Exposure Screen is a paid API for AI agents from global-hazards.x402tookit.com, paid per call via x402, $0.05/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-30).

Returns a comprehensive natural hazard screen for a coordinate, combining earthquake history with active wildfire, storm, volcano, and flood events within a configurable radius.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability global-hazards-hazard-exposure-screen-c3a8fb1f
```

Example prompt: Can you run a full natural hazard screen for coordinates 34.05° N, 118.25° W — I want earthquake history for the last 15 years and all active wildfire, storm, volcano, and flood events within 500 km?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a single unified hazard profile for a geographic point combining both historical seismic data and real-time active event monitoring across multiple hazard types (wildfire, storm, volcano, flood). Prefer this over individual hazard endpoints when you want a quick risk verdict and summary without assembling data from multiple calls. Ideal for property screening, travel safety checks, insurance underwriting, and field deployment risk assessments.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or out-of-range coordinates return an error
- Radius outside 50–1000 km range may be rejected or clamped
- Years outside 1–30 range may be rejected
- Upstream data sources (NASA EONET, GDACS, USGS) may be unavailable, resulting in a degraded response with partial data
- Network timeout if external hazard APIs are slow
- Missing required lat/lon parameters returns a validation error

## How this service works

Hazard screen of a coordinate: quake history plus active wildfire, storm, volcano and flood events within a radius.

## Output

Returns a structured hazard report including: a verdict and plain-language summary, seismic data (M5+ count, M7+ in history, M6+ last 30 days, nearest of the largest 100 quakes), a list of active hazard events (wildfire, storm, volcano, flood) with details, the radius and timestamp of the data, data source URLs, reasons for any elevated risk, a list of hazard types not checked, and a degraded-data flag if any sources were unavailable.
