Geomelon MCP vs Offnadir Delta MCP
A side-by-side look at the Geomelon MCP and Offnadir Delta MCP MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose Geomelon MCP for location services work as a local process; choose Offnadir Delta MCP for location services as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.

query_signalsGeolocated world events from global news media, AI-enriched with severity/GEOINT scores and collection recommendations.query_statsRoll-ups over the corpus: totals plus per-category and per-day breakdown. `total` counts the same events query_signals returns, so it matches its meta.total_count for the same query.query_hotspotsWhere activity concentrates: density grid-binned into ranked cells with peak severity, categories and representative event_ids. Events too coarse to place are counted in meta.dropped_by_plottable_count, not spread over the grid.get_world_briefAI world brief: daily (prior UTC day, all plans) or weekly/monthly by plan. freshness.is_stale: no newer day, so relay as stale.get_usageThe calling key's remaining token balance and plan capabilities. Pre-flight a metered call with it.search_imagerySearch the imagery catalog over an area and window. Metadata only, no pixels. eventDate tags each scene pre/post — **a same-day scene is same_day_unknown, never post** — and eventPoint/eventAoi add target_relation, so a scene that only clips the bbox is not read as covering the event.plan_event_imageryThe deterministic imagery plan for ONE event: checks BOTH sensors exactly once — sentinel-1-grd (SAR, the only look that survives cloud and night) and sentinel-2-l2a — against the event footprint and a pre/post window. **A VHR recommendation never invalidates what the free catalog showed.**rank_imaging_priorityWHERE, and with what class of satellite, observation is most worthwhile now: composite IMPORTANCE crossed with the SPEC CLASS the required resolution demands — coarse, hr (free Sentinel-class) or vhr. Deterministic.survey_observable_eventsWhich events a sensor can actually RESOLVE, over the FULL set. **The population is ungated by tasking readiness**, so its total sits above rank_imaging_priority and counts a different unit from query_signals clusters.predict_satellite_passesWHEN a place can next be imaged and by WHAT: 13 free-systematic and commercial-taskable families. **Every pass is a GEOMETRIC access opportunity** — no operator plan is consulted. retrieval_ok:false means timing is UNAVAILABLE, never "no passes".assess_signalAI remote-sensing deep-dive for one signal: what to observe, sensors, a collection window. Also returns a deterministic `context` whose `imagery_handoff.parameters` are the exact search_imagery inputs. Cached per signal; not-observable signals are rejected before any charge.ask_analystAsk the Delta Analyst an OSINT/GEOINT question; returns a structured brief. **Durable async**: {status:"processing", job_id} comes back immediately and the run finishes in a background worker. Fetch with get_analyst_job, or re-send the SAME idempotencyKey (no second charge).- +28 more on the listing page
