# analyze_parcel

Structured read of a parcel BOUNDARY — pass your own GeoJSON Polygon/MultiPolygon, OR just lat+lon and DC Hub finds the containing parcel in its HOSTED parcel-boundary layer (free county/state GIS polygons, rolling out by data-center market — Loudoun County VA first; a point outside hosted coverage returns an honest 404 with the coverage list, never a guess). Returns _entity=parcel_analysis: geodesic total_acres, a per-member acreage breakdown, a contiguous flag, representative_point = the centroid of the LARGEST-area member (never the multi-part geometric center, which can land off-parcel on a highway median or river and poison every point-keyed read), and hosted_parcel {parcel_id, county, state, acres_per_source} when the polygon came from the hosted layer. Also returns a site_evaluation_handoff to pipe into analyze_site + get_water_risk at that anchor. Use when you HAVE a boundary or a point on a specific parcel and want it anchored + sized; for a general lat/lon site score use analyze_site; for the interconnection-queue survivor set use get_refined_queue (queue rows carry NO parcel identity, so they never auto-join to hosted parcels).

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `lat` | number | no | Latitude of a point ON the parcel — used with lon when geometry is omitted to look up the containing parcel from the hosted county/state GIS layer |
| `lng` | number | no | Alias for lon — either name works |
| `lon` | number | no | Longitude of a point ON the parcel (used with lat when geometry is omitted) |
| `geometry` | object | no | GeoJSON Polygon or MultiPolygon parcel boundary, e.g. {"type":"Polygon","coordinates":[[[lng,lat],[lng,lat],...]]} — a MultiPolygon carries discontinuous parcel |
| `latitude` | number | no | Alias for lat — either name works |
| `longitude` | number | no | Alias for lon — either name works |
| `capacity_mw` | number | no | Optional target load in MW to pass through into the site_evaluation_handoff |

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "analyze_parcel",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why analyze_parcel is rated Low

Even though analyze_parcel only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

## Use case

AI agents call analyze_parcel to retrieve information from Mcp Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Mcp Server:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "analyze_parcel": {}
  }
}
```
