# HALOWERK Eastern Land – Croatia Soil Silt Fraction (0-5 cm)

> HALOWERK Eastern Land – Croatia Soil Silt Fraction (0-5 cm) is a paid API for AI agents from ostland.halowerk.com, paid per call via x402, $0.004/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns the mean SoilGrids silt fraction for the 0–5 cm topsoil layer at a given WGS84 coordinate within Croatia.

## 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-eastern-land-croatia-soil-silt-fraction-0-5-cm-8aefa1d2 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: What's the silt fraction in the top 5 centimeters of soil at latitude 45.815, longitude 15.982 in Croatia?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need SoilGrids-derived silt fraction data specifically for a location within Croatia and want pre-validated boundary enforcement so you only pay for valid results. Prefer it over generic SoilGrids API access when you need a lightweight, pay-per-call microservice scoped to Croatian territory without managing API credentials.

## Known failure modes

- Coordinate outside Croatia boundary: rejected before payment, returns validation error
- Coordinate within European coverage bounds but outside Croatia: boundary check fails
- Latitude or longitude out of the published European coverage range (lat 34–72.5, lon -31.5–40.5): schema validation error
- No SoilGrids data available for the queried point: may return null or error
- Network or service timeout: request fails with an HTTP 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 Croatia; results outside it are rejected before payment.

## Output

A numerical value representing the mean silt fraction (typically expressed as g/kg or percentage) for the 0–5 cm topsoil layer at the queried coordinate, sourced from SoilGrids. Coordinates outside the validated Croatia boundary are rejected before the call is processed.
