LocationIQ (Geocoding & Maps)

LocationIQ (Geocoding & Maps) MCP Connector for Claude

A+

Build with location data via LocationIQ — geocode addresses, calculate routes, and perform reverse lookups.

10 tools Official Updated Jun 28, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

Connect your LocationIQ account to any AI agent and take full control of affordable geocoding, routing, and geospatial intelligence through natural conversation.

What you can do

  • Geocoding & Search — Convert address strings into precise GPS coordinates and use autocomplete to retrieve suggestions for partial location queries directly from your agent
  • Reverse Geocoding — Convert latitude and longitude coordinates into human-readable addresses, including precise postal data and localized language translations
  • Advanced Routing — Calculate optimal driving, walking, or cycling paths between multiple coordinates with support for OSRM-based navigation instructions
  • Distance Matrices — Compute travel duration and distance tables between multiple origins and destinations to optimize logistics and delivery workflows
  • Road Snapping — Perfectly align messy GPS signals to the exact street network using native snapping configurations for accurate fleet tracking
  • Geo-Fencing & Filtering — Restrict searches within specific country ISO codes or geographic bounding boxes to ensure data relevancy and regional compliance

Find the coordinates for the 'Eiffel Tower' in Paris

Resolving address… I've found the Eiffel Tower at latitude 48.8584 and longitude 2.2945. The address is 5 Avenue Anatole France, 75007 Paris, France. Would you like me to find nearby hotels?

What is the best driving route from Lisbon to Porto?

Calculating directions… The optimal route via A1 is approximately 312 km and will take about 2 hours and 55 minutes with current traffic. I can provide the detailed turn-by-turn instructions if you'd like.

Check my remaining LocationIQ request balance

Retrieving balance… You have 4,850 requests remaining out of your 5,000 daily limit. Your account is in good standing. Would you like me to perform any more geocoding lookups?

Yes. Use the `reverse_geocode` tool by providing the latitude and longitude. Your agent will return the human-readable address, including the house number, street, city, and postal code.
