GIS MCP server

This is a helper that gives your AI assistant skills for working with maps and location data. It can measure distances, draw areas around points, change between map coordinate systems, and read map files. It is handy if you work with locations, maps, or any data that has a place attached to it.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI something about places or maps, like how far apart two points are. Your AI passes that request to this helper program. The helper uses well known map libraries to do the actual calculation or file reading. Then it sends the answer back, and your AI explains it to you in the chat. You do not need to install or understand those map libraries yourself.

What you can do with it

• Measure distances, areas and lengths between places
• Draw a buffer zone around a point or a shape
• Change coordinates from one map system to another
• Combine or compare two map shapes, like finding where they overlap
• Read and work with map files such as shapefiles and raster images
• Make a simple map or an interactive web map
• Check whether a map shape is valid and fix it if not

Try asking your AI

• “How far is it in kilometres between these two coordinates?”
• “Draw a 5 kilometre buffer around this point and show me the result”
• “Convert these coordinates from one map system to another”
• “Which of these two areas overlap, and by how much?”

What it gives back to you

You get answers in the chat: numbers like distances or areas, short summaries of what it found, or a new map file it saved for you. For map output it can produce a static image or an interactive web map, depending on what you ask. If it changed a shape or a file, it tells you what it did.
