Data offered docs-verified: ARGO float temperature · ARGO float salinity · ARGO float depth/pressure profiles · time- and region-filtered profile queries
Coverage docs-verified: Indian Ocean subset per DOCS; global coverage not stated
Formats docs-verified: NetCDF (ARGO input files) · Streamlit web dashboard · HTTP REST API (FastAPI) · MCP over WebSocket (optional)
Access docs-verified: Open source under MIT licence (per DOCS). LLM features need an OpenAI API key; without one the app falls back to rule-based mode. PostgreSQL is optional.

Use cases llm-inferred: Marine baseline context: temperature and salinity profiles near an offshore or coastal-adjacent project site · Desk-based screening of ARGO profile availability by region and month before commissioning survey work · Supporting evidence for climate or sea-level discussions in marine environmental assessments
Audience llm-inferred: oceanographers · marine scientists · climate researchers · environmental consultants (marine screening)

Constraints llm-inferred: Ocean data only; no UK river, rainfall, groundwater or land-based datasets · Default data folder is an Indian Ocean subset; global coverage is not confirmed in DOCS · LLM-based chat and planning require an OpenAI API key; rule-based fallback otherwise · Requires Python 3.11+ and a local install; no hosted service is described · ENTRY tools list is empty although DOCS name MCP tools · DOCS contain unresolved merge-conflict markers, suggesting an unfinished README and possible maintenance risk · No release cadence or maintenance status stated
