About Mapflow MCP Server
Connect your Mapflow account to any AI agent and manage geospatial AI processing through natural conversation.
Cursor's Agent mode turns Mapflow into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Mapflow and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 7 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
What you can do
- Project Management — Create and manage mapping projects
- Image Processing — Trigger AI models on satellite and drone imagery
- Task Tracking — Monitor processing status and completion
- Dataset Browsing — Access generated vector datasets and polygons
- Model Management — Browse available AI models (buildings, roads, forests)
The Mapflow MCP Server exposes 7 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Cursor in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Cursor with the Mapflow MCP Server
Cursor AI Code Editor provides unique advantages when paired with Mapflow through the Model Context Protocol.
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools
Mapflow + Cursor Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Cursor combined with the Mapflow MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Code generation with live data: ask Cursor to generate a security report module using live DNS and subdomain data fetched through MCP
Automated documentation: have Cursor query your API's tool schemas and generate TypeScript interfaces or OpenAPI specs automatically
Infrastructure-as-code: Cursor can fetch domain configurations and generate corresponding Terraform or CloudFormation templates
Test scaffolding: ask Cursor to pull real API responses via MCP and generate unit test fixtures from actual data
