DataGov Israel
Verified94/100Python-based MCP server for Israeli Government Open Data (data.gov.il) with full CKAN API coverage and built-in data visualization. Beyond standard dataset search and retrieval, it offers dataset profiling (field types, missing values, statistics), interactive Vega-Lite chart generation (histogram, bar, line, scatter), and Leaflet map generation from geographic data. Built with FastMCP and async httpx for optimal performance, with 34+ automated tests.
Working with Israeli government open data typically requires writing scripts, cleaning data, and manually creating visualizations. Analysts and researchers waste significant time on technical processing instead of substantive content analysis.
