What's in it

Data offered docs-verified: geocoding · reverse geocoding · OSM place lookup by osm_type and osm_id · straight-line (Haversine) distance · OSRM route distance · OSRM route details with turn-by-turn steps · OSRM distance matrix · OSRM trip optimisation (TSP) · Overpass nearby POI search · openstreetmap.org map links
Coverage llm-inferred: Global
Formats docs-verified: MCP stdio
Access docs-verified: Local install (Node 20+) that calls open public Nominatim, OSRM and Overpass endpoints; no API key documented; optional NOMINATIM_EMAIL for large usage; licence not stated.

Useful for

Use cases llm-inferred: Geocode site addresses to coordinates for FRA or drainage site-location plans · Estimate drive or walk distances and durations from a site to suppliers, depots or monitoring points · Build a distance matrix to plan site visit or survey routes across several locations · Find nearby schools, hospitals or other sensitive receptors within a radius for screening
Audience llm-inferred: GIS analysts · planners · civils engineers · site investigation teams · environmental consultants

Limitations

Constraints docs-verified: Public Nominatim, OSRM and Overpass servers are shared open endpoints: use them lightly and fairly · Production use is recommended on self-hosted Nominatim and OSRM servers (set via env vars) · Requires Node 20+

Example tool calls docs-verified

Geocode an address to its top-result coordinates. The 'address' argument name is inferred from the 'address → coords' description; the docs only name limit and countrycodes.

{
  "tool": "geocode",
  "arguments": {
    "address": "New York",
    "limit": 1,
    "countrycodes": "us"
  }
