## Description
East Baton Rouge GIS — East Baton Rouge Parish, Louisiana open geospatial data (ArcGIS).

## Tools
Capabilities this server exposes over MCP:

- **search_datasets** — Search East Baton Rouge GIS open geospatial datasets (parcels, addresses, public works & planning) by keyword. Returns each dataset's name, summary, record_count, owner/org, and its Feature Service `url` — pass that url to query_layer / layer_info.
- **query_layer** — Query an ArcGIS Feature Service / Map Service layer by its url (from search_datasets). SQL-like `where`, comma-separated `out_fields`, `order_by`, `limit`, `offset`. Returns attribute rows (and geometry). Use where="1=1" + out_fields="*" to sample.
- **layer_info** — Get an ArcGIS Feature/Map Service layer's schema by url: fields (name + type), geometry type, total record count, and capabilities.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Install path detected from listing signals. Uses `npx` (confidence: high):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "arcgis-eastbatonrouge": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","@pipeworx/mcp-arcgis-eastbatonrouge"]
  }
}
```

## Documentation

## What Arcgis Eastbatonrouge does

Arcgis Eastbatonrouge exposes East Baton Rouge Parish, Louisiana GIS data through three MCP tools. The integration focuses on open geospatial datasets covering areas such as parcels, addresses, public works, and planning.

The workflow begins with dataset discovery. `search_datasets` accepts a keyword and returns matching dataset names, summaries, record counts, owning organization, and the ArcGIS Feature Service URL associated with each result. That URL becomes the input for the other two tools.

`query_layer` retrieves records from an ArcGIS Feature Service or Map Service layer. Results can include attributes and geometry. `layer_info` describes a layer before querying it, including its fields, field types, geometry type, record count, and supported capabilities.

## How it works

The hosted MCP endpoint is available at `https://gateway.pipeworx.io/arcgis-eastbatonrouge/mcp`. Add that URL to an MCP client as a remote server. The endpoint lists the three ArcGIS tools along with shared Pipeworx gateway tools, so its advertised tool set is broader than this integration’s dedicated tool list.

A local alternative runs through standard MCP over stdin and stdout. Configure the package with `npx -y @pipeworx/mcp-arcgis-eastbatonrouge`; this mode exposes only the Arcgis Eastbatonrouge tools and does not add Pipeworx routing or gateway meta-tools.

The gateway also provides a full endpoint at `https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp`. Both gateway URLs use the same service infrastructure, while the scoped endpoint lists this pack’s tools directly and the full endpoint lists tools from the wider catalog. Gateway requests can also use `ask_pipeworx` to route natural-language questions to available tools.

## Setup and configuration

For a remote connection, add a server entry such as:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "arcgis-eastbatonrouge": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/arcgis-eastbatonrouge/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

For local stdio operation, use:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "arcgis-eastbatonrouge": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-arcgis-eastbatonrouge"]
    }
  }
}
```

The package can also be started directly with `npx -y @pipeworx/mcp-arcgis-eastbatonrouge` to verify that it launches. The hosted gateway can be called over HTTP as well, including direct tool requests such as a POST to `/v1/tools/arcgis_eastbatonrouge_search_datasets`.

## Tools and capabilities

- `search_datasets`: Finds parish GIS datasets by keyword and returns metadata plus the service URL needed for follow-up operations.
- `query_layer`: Applies a SQL-like `where` expression, selects fields with a comma-separated `out_fields` value, orders results, and paginates with `limit` and `offset`.
- `layer_info`: Inspects fields, geometry, record totals, and layer capabilities.
- Sampling a layer is supported with `where="1=1"` and `out_fields="*"`.

## Limitations and notes

This is an independent, unofficial integration and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or published by the upstream GIS provider. Queries depend on the ArcGIS service URL returned by dataset search and on the capabilities of the selected layer.

The gateway and local package expose different tool scopes. A scoped gateway connection includes shared Pipeworx tools, while the standalone package contains only the three pack-specific tools. Initial gateway calls do not require an account, and the local mode avoids a gateway round trip altogether.

The MIT license applies to the package.
