# Amsterdam Addresses & Properties AI Agent Connect > Amsterdam Addresses & Properties MCP provides your AI client with direct access to the City of Amsterdam's official data. You can pull real-time information from the BAG address register, the WOZ property register, building layers, and protected monument records. It works without requiring you to manage your own API keys. ## Overview - **Category:** real-estate - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_fnyZK8D9jikMaR37JeysnL0YV1lCof1vbiM1vCnZ/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** amsterdam, bag, addresses, property, woz, monuments, geocoding-maps, government-public-data ## Description You can now give your AI agent the ability to query official Amsterdam municipal data directly. This MCP connects your client to the city's core registers, including the BAG address register, the building (panden) layer, the WOZ property register, and the monuments register. Instead of manually searching through government portals, your agent can fetch specific address designations, building geometries, or property classifications in seconds. Whether you need to verify a house number, check the build year of a specific building, or confirm if a structure is a protected Rijksmonument, this MCP provides the raw data from the source. It's built for anyone needing precise, official geocoding or real estate data for the Amsterdam region without the friction of setting up custom API integrations. ## Tools ### find_monuments Find protected monuments in Amsterdam by name, address, or status. It returns details like the monument type, designation date, and architect. ### find_addresses Locate registered addresses in Amsterdam using a postal code and house number. This tool queries the BAG register for specific address designations. ### get_address Retrieve a single address record by its ID. You'll get the postal code, address type, status, and registration validity period. ### search_buildings Search the BAG register for buildings using a name or dwelling type. It provides build year, floor counts, and polygon geometry. ### get_building Fetch a specific building record by ID. This includes the building name, dwelling type, floor count, and spatial geometry. ### list_property_records Access the WOZ property register using a WOZ object number. It returns the kind of property and its use classification. ### get_monument Get full details for a specific monument by its ID. This includes the public description, geometry, and membership in complexes. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` Find the registered address for 1015NR, house number 1. ``` **Response:** ``` The find_addresses tool identifies the address designation for postal code 1015NR, house number 1, including the address type and registration status. ``` **Prompt:** ``` Is Tweede Weteringdwarsstraat 71 a protected monument? ``` **Response:** ``` The find_monuments tool confirms if Tweede Weteringdwarsstraat 71 is a protected monument, providing its status, such as Rijksmonument or Stadsmonument. ``` **Prompt:** ``` What kind of property is WOZ object 036300000001? ``` **Response:** ``` The list_property_records tool shows that WOZ object 036300000001 is classified by its object kind and use, such as a shop or residence. ``` ## Capabilities ### Address Verification Your agent uses the BAG register to confirm valid postal codes and house numbers. ### Building Research The AI pulls build years, floor counts, and geometry for specific structures. ### Property Classification Your agent queries the WOZ register to determine if a property is residential or commercial. ### Heritage Identification The agent identifies protected monuments and their official status in Amsterdam. ### Spatial Data Retrieval Your agent accesses polygon geometry for buildings and monuments. ## Use Cases ### Property Due Diligence An agent checks the WOZ register to verify the intended use and classification of a building. ### Address Validation A workflow uses the BAG register to ensure a postal code and house number combination is officially registered. ### Urban Planning Research A researcher queries building data to find the age and floor count of structures in a specific area. ### Heritage Mapping An agent identifies all Rijksmonumenten within a specific neighborhood. ## Benefits - Direct access to official Amsterdam BAG, WOZ, and monument registers. - No API key management required for the user. - Provides precise polygon geometry for buildings and monuments. - Eliminates manual searching through municipal web portals. ## How It Works Connecting to this data is a single-step process that makes municipal records available to your agent. 1. Connect the MCP to your preferred client like Claude or Cursor via Vinkius. 2. Ask your agent a question about an Amsterdam address or property. 3. The agent selects the appropriate tool from the Amsterdam registers. 4. The MCP executes the request and returns official data to your agent. 5. Your agent presents the verified information to you. ## Frequently Asked Questions **Do I need an API key to use this Amsterdam data?** No. Vinkius hosts the MCP and manages all connections, so you can use it without your own API keys. **Which registers does this MCP access?** It accesses the BAG address register, the WOZ property register, the building (panden) layer, and the monuments register. **Can I get the geographic shape of a building?** Yes. The search_buildings and get_building tools provide polygon geometry for buildings. **What kind of monument information is available?** You can find the status (such as Rijksmonument), designation date, architect, and original function of protected monuments. **Is this data official?** Yes. The data is pulled directly from the official registers maintained by the City of Amsterdam. **Do I need an API key?** No. The bag, woz and monumenten services of the city's DSO open-data platform are public (OPENBAAR) and work without credentials. **What is the difference between BAG and WOZ?** BAG is the national address register: it holds addresses (nummeraanduidingen), buildings (panden) and dwellings. WOZ is the property register: it holds valuation records per property object, with kind and use classifications. Use BAG to locate an address or building, WOZ to look up a property record. **What monument statuses are there?** Monuments carry a status such as Rijksmonument (national monument) or Stadsmonument (city monument). find_monuments can filter by status, type (e.g. Pand), and also by under-review flag. **Are building geometries usable for mapping?** Yes. Building (panden) records include polygon geometry in EPSG:28999 (RD New). Convert to WGS84 for plotting on standard world maps.
