data-infrastructure

A scalable geospatial data platform designed to improve the discoverability and usability of African climate data. Leveraging MinIO, TiTiler, and Celery, the system streamlines data management and visualization, delivering standardized, high-resolution insights to support ACMAD’s regional early warning and disaster risk mandates.

What's in it

Data offered docs-verified: hourly NOAA ISD-Lite station observations (temperature, pressure, wind direction, wind speed, 1h rainfall) · vector geospatial layer catalogue and ingestion · OGC tile services via TiPG
Coverage docs-verified: Africa (WMO blocks 60-69) for NOAA ISD-Lite station backfill
Resolution docs-verified: hourly, per station
Formats docs-verified: NDJSON · WKT (geometry in station export) · REST API with OpenAPI/Swagger schema · OGC tiles via TiPG
Access docs-verified: Self-hosted via Docker Compose; role-based access control; secrets set via env (POSTGRES_PASSWORD, SECRET_KEY, MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD); licence not stated

Useful for

Use cases llm-inferred: Overseas project baseline rainfall and wind series from nearest NOAA ISD-Lite station · Temperature and pressure context for climate risk screening of African project sites · Serving site-specific vector layers and raster tiles to GIS clients
Audience llm-inferred: hydrologists · GIS analysts · drainage engineers · climate analysts

Limitations

Constraints llm-inferred: Entry lists regions as Global, but the documented ISD-Lite backfill defaults to Africa (WMO blocks 60-69) · No licence stated in docs or entry · Self-hosted stack (PostgreSQL/PostGIS, Redis, MinIO, Celery); not a hosted service · ISD-Lite ingest needs outbound HTTPS to www.ncei.noaa.gov · Stations must already exist before ISD-Lite backfill (run import_wmo_stations first) · dewp, skyc and prcp_6h are skipped by the ISD-Lite ingest · Entry 'tools' list appears to be env var names and variable codes; no MCP tool schemas are documented
