# NASA EONET Active Natural Hazard Events

> NASA EONET Active Natural Hazard Events is a paid API for AI agents from fittings.sh, paid per call via x402, $0.00447/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns NASA EONET natural hazard events currently being tracked worldwide, with latest position and magnitude, filterable by category, bounding box, and recency.

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://fittings.sh/v1/hazard/active-events
- Price: $0.00447/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-09-15
- Activations on Zero: 0
- Tags: x402
- Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/nasa-eonet-active-natural-hazard-events-f21376f0
- Structured record (JSON): https://api.zero.xyz/v1/capabilities/cap_oPQCjPyl1LaBSUZFFxxZc

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 nasa-eonet-active-natural-hazard-events-f21376f0
```

Example prompt: What natural hazard events is NASA currently tracking? Show me up to 30 open wildfires observed in the last 14 days.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time or recent NASA-curated natural hazard event data with geospatial filtering and category specificity. Prefer it over generic news APIs when you need structured event data with coordinates and magnitude, and over static datasets when you need live tracking of open events. It is the right choice for disaster monitoring dashboards, geospatial risk tools, and situational awareness agents that need authoritative earth observation data.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid category string returns an error or empty result
- Bounding box crossing the antimeridian is explicitly unsupported and will be rejected
- Days value outside 1–365 range returns a validation error
- Limit value outside 1–50 range returns a validation error
- NASA EONET upstream unavailability causes a 502 or timeout
- No matching events returns an empty list rather than an error

## How this service works

Natural hazard events NASA is currently tracking worldwide, filterable by category, bounding box and recency, with the latest observed position and magnitude of each.

## Output

A list of active natural hazard events from NASA EONET, each including event ID, title, category, status, latest observed position (latitude/longitude), magnitude value and unit, and observation date — up to the specified limit.
