Frequently asked questions

Which listed sources support UK designated sites and biodiversity APIs?

Start with MAGIC, Natural England Open Data Geoportal, NBN Atlas API. Map English protected sites and review UK species records to scope an ecology desk study.

What should I check before using these sources for uk designated sites and biodiversity apis?

Designation boundaries and species records differ in coverage; access restrictions may affect sensitive species.

How do I inspect MAGIC through MCP?

Connect an MCP client to https://terramcp.earth/mcp and call get_source with slug magic. Review its provenance, access requirements and limitations before contacting the upstream service. Discovery does not make every listed source directly executable through the router.

Are these sources free and independently verified?

Access and licence terms belong to each upstream provider; some products require registration or payment. Open each listing for evidence, health status and enrichment provenance. A wrapper and its underlying API can refer to the same dataset and are not independent observations.
