Asub Ax Overview

Asub Ax MCP server exposes Statistics and Research Åland (ÅSUB) PxWeb data through tools for browsing subjects, inspecting table metadata, and submitting selection queries. Use `subjects` to find databases, folders, and `.px` tables, then call `table_meta` before constructing a `query_table` request. Results are returned as json-stat2, making the server suitable for agents that need structured Åland statistics. It is available through the Pipeworx gateway or as a local stdio package.

Primary Use Cases for Asub Ax:
  • Browse ÅSUB statistical databases and tables
  • Inspect PxWeb dimensions before querying
  • Run filtered Åland statistics queries
  • Return selected data as json-stat2
