# HALOWERK Atlantic Land – Ireland Soil Bulk Density (0-5 cm)

> HALOWERK Atlantic Land – Ireland Soil Bulk Density (0-5 cm) is a paid API for AI agents from atlantikland.halowerk.com, paid per call via x402, $0.004/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns the mean SoilGrids bulk density for the 0-5 cm soil layer at a given coordinate within Ireland, validated against the Natural Earth boundary.

## 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-ireland-soil-bulk-density-0-5-cm-37eed5a3 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What's the SoilGrids bulk density for the top 0-5 cm soil layer at latitude 52.85, longitude -8.30 in Ireland?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need point-level SoilGrids bulk density specifically for locations within Ireland. It is ideal for agricultural site assessments, land capability modelling, environmental baseline surveys, or carbon sequestration studies where Irish topsoil compaction data is required. Prefer it over generic SoilGrids API access when you need built-in Ireland boundary validation and micropayment-compatible per-call access.

## Known failure modes

- Coordinate outside Ireland boundary — request rejected with validation error before payment
- Latitude or longitude out of the published European coverage range (lat 34–72.5, lon -31.5–40.5) — schema validation error
- Missing latitude or longitude field — request body validation failure
- Service unavailable or upstream SoilGrids data timeout — 5xx error response
- Payment failure via x402 protocol — charge not processed, no result returned

## How this service works

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

## Output

A numeric mean bulk density value (g/cm³ or kg/m³ as per SoilGrids convention) for the 0-5 cm soil layer at the queried coordinate in Ireland, derived from the SoilGrids dataset. Coordinates outside Ireland's Natural Earth boundary are rejected before any result or charge is returned.
