GovBot Disaster History

GovBot Disaster History is a remote, read-only MCP server operated by Ideation Lab, Corp. It requires no account. It returns the public record of past disasters for a state, a county or a disaster number, each result with its source and dates.

What it returns:

• Flood events: NOAA Storm Events records (Flood, Flash Flood, Heavy Rain, Coastal Flood, Lakeshore Flood), 1996-2025, with local times, county or zone, deaths, injuries, damage estimates and narratives, and totals for a search.
• Declarations: FEMA disaster declarations by state, county, date and incident type, with the programs declared.
• Recovery: FEMA Public Assistance funded projects for a disaster, with damage category and obligated amounts.
• Insured losses: National Flood Insurance Program redacted claims for a county, with dates of loss, flood zones and payments.
• Mitigation: FEMA Hazard Mitigation Assistance subapplications for a state, with program, activity, status and amounts.

Typical use: build the flood history of a county, from the events recorded by the National Weather Service to the declarations, recovery projects, insurance claims and mitigation funding that followed.

How results are qualified: these are historical records, not current warnings or forecasts. Storm Events damages are NWS estimates, Public Assistance amounts are obligations, NFIP amounts are claim payments and mitigation amounts are requested or obligated funding; all are nominal dollars as published. The sources share no event identifier, so any match between them is an inference by date and place. The service does not provide insurance, eligibility, legal or engineering determinations. Not affiliated with NOAA, FEMA or any government agency. The server writes nothing.
