How to Use the Maxar (Satellite Imagery) MCP in Cline

Q: How does Cline use Maxar (Satellite Imagery) to discover scenes?

Cline runs searchdiscovery using your target latitude and longitude. The agent then parses the JSON metadata to find the clearest satellite passes.

Q: Can Cline place orders for data products using Maxar (Satellite Imagery)?

Yes. Cline calls createorder with your specified spatial coordinates and product type, writing the order confirmation details directly into your codebase.

Q: How do I stream map tiles into my VS Code project using Maxar (Satellite Imagery) and Cline?

Cline uses getmwsendpoints to fetch active tile server URLs. It then writes the HTML or React code to load those live layers into your map view.

Q: How does this tool resolve tile metadata?

The getardtile tool retrieves specific Analysis-Ready Data tile coordinates. Cline uses this data to write automated scripts that download and crop the exact tiles you need.

Track and pull Maxar satellite imagery directly into your VS Code projects using Cline's autonomous coding agent.

Autonomous imagery ordering with Cline

The `create_order` tool submits orders for specific geospatial data products directly from your workspace. Cline writes the request payload, runs the order, and updates your project's local tracking state. If the order payload requires specific formats, Cline modifies your JSON configurations to match. It tracks the order lifecycle without you ever opening a browser.

Automated catalog discovery via MCP Server

The `search_discovery` tool queries the Maxar catalog for available imagery matching your project's bounding boxes. Cline triggers this search, parses the returned imagery metadata, and displays the options directly in your terminal. This MCP Server integration allows Cline to filter out high-cloud-cover scenes automatically. It writes the filtered results straight into your test files to verify your ingestion pipeline.

Stream live geospatial layers

The `get_mws_endpoints` tool fetches active streaming endpoints for Maxar Web Services. Cline uses this tool to grab the correct WMS or WMTS URLs and injects them directly into your Leaflet or Mapbox components. The agent writes the frontend code, hooks up the streaming endpoints, and runs a local server to test the rendering. You get a working map component with live satellite imagery in seconds.
