  title: OpenFEMA Catalog Web Disaster Summaries API
  description: OpenFEMA is FEMA's open data platform. It exposes a read-only RESTful API over individually versioned dataset endpoints (Entities) using OData-style query string parameters. No API key, subscription, or authentication is required. Responses default to JSON; CSV and Parquet are also available via $format. This document models the confirmed public dataset endpoints covering disaster declarations, public assistance, hazard mitigation, NFIP, IPAWS alerts, web disaster summaries, and the self-describing dataset/field catalog. Field lists shown here are representative, not exhaustive - the full data dictionary for any dataset/version is available live from the OpenFemaDataSetFields endpoint modeled below.
