geo_crosswalk

Return official crosswalk targets for one canonical geography.

Description

Return official crosswalk targets for one canonical geography.

Each row includes the target entity, relation, exact decimal weight where published, crosswalk source/vintage, and as_of. Results are in stable target/relation/vintage order with cursor pagination; default 50, maximum 200. Pass pagination.next_cursor back until has_more is false. No official relationship is a successful empty page. Errors are unknown_entity for a bad ID and bad_parameter for a bad limit or cursor.

Example: geo_crosswalk(geography_id="county_48201", target_level="cbsa").

Parameters

Input schema advertised to MCP clients and mirrored by the REST query string.
