## 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 halowerk-atlantic-land-france-soil-silt-fraction-0-5-cm-34c010ee -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What's the mean silt fraction in the top 5 cm of soil at latitude 47.2 and longitude 1.5 in France?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need precise, per-point SoilGrids silt fraction data for a specific location within France at the 0–5 cm depth. It is ideal for applications requiring validated French-territory geospatial soil texture data without building your own SoilGrids pipeline. The pre-payment boundary check avoids wasted charges for out-of-bounds coordinates. Prefer it over generic SoilGrids API access when pay-per-call x402 micropayment integration and France-specific validation are desired.

## Known failure modes

- Coordinate outside France boundary: request is rejected before payment with a validation error
- Latitude or longitude outside the published European coverage range (lat 34–72.5, lon -31.5–40.5): schema validation failure
- Malformed input (non-numeric or missing lat/lon): 400-level error
- Service unavailable or upstream SoilGrids data outage: 5xx error

## How this service works

Mean SoilGrids silt fraction for the 0-5 cm layer. The coordinate is validated against the Natural Earth boundary for France; results outside it are rejected before payment.

## Output

Returns a numeric mean silt fraction value (likely as a percentage or g/kg proportion) for the 0–5 cm topsoil layer at the queried WGS84 coordinate, validated to lie within the French national boundary. Coordinates outside France are rejected before any payment is charged.
