Biohotspot
Ocean data for any coast or sea, Australian marine park facts and Marxan reserve design.
What it does
Biohotspot is an MCP server, a connector that lets an AI assistant use it as a tool. It is hosted: an assistant connects to it over the internet, nothing to install.
No capability identified yet from its description.
Facts come from the Official MCP Registry, as declared by the publisher. Capabilities are matched automatically (low confidence). None of this is a test of the tool.

12 tools offered to AI assistants
look_here· Every map layer with data within `km` of a point: habitats, wildlife, human uses, protected areas and world ocean maps. Start here to learn what a place holds.look_in_area· Every map layer with data inside a polygon.understand_area· Which habitats an area holds, how much of each, and how far that goes toward each habitat's protection target. Give a polygon, or a point and radius. Outside Biohotspot's local planning data the answer comes from world maps (rough: true).simulate· Run the optimiser (Marxan) on the planning data (the example project Exmouth Gulf): the cheapest set of planning squares that meets every habitat target. `protect` = planning-square ids always included (understand_area returns them as `pus`find_layers· Search Biohotspot's 1,600+ world layers by words (e.g. 'seagrass', 'coral bleaching'). Returns ids, names, categories and licences; vector layers can be read with get_features.get_features· A layer's features as GeoJSON from the OGC API (the address QGIS uses), optionally inside a bounding box [west, south, east, north]. Collection ids: find_layers ids, or exmouth_<dataset> for the example project's open layers.marine_park· Facts about an Australian marine park from its Biohotspot page: area, IUCN categories and named zones (CAPAD 2024), habitats, blue carbon and pressures measured inside it, each with its source and licence, and the page's address. Give partsearch_papers· Research papers and reports in Biohotspot's library that mention the words.list_projects· Your projects and the ones shared with you: name, area, your role and how complete their data is.get_project· One project: its area (GeoJSON), its data check (each data type covered, partial or missing) and your role.project_data· The data a project's team added, with each file's status (receiving, checked, ready, failed).add_project_data· Add data to a project from a public download link (GeoPackage, zipped Shapefile, GeoJSON, KML, CSV with coordinates or GeoTIFF, up to 200 MB): your own model's output, a survey, a map. Biohotspot reads and checks it; follow its status with
What "online" means: the server answered an MCP connection at the time of the check. It is not a guarantee of security, quality or continuous uptime. How we test: we open an MCP session and ask for the tool list, as an AI assistant would. We never run a tool and never send a key. Checked every few days. Method
Is this your server? Monitoring Pro: a check every 30 minutes and an email within the hour when it stops answering. Launch offer: $39.99 once, for life.
