get

Get details on Nominatim

Returns the object's full name, display name, place rank, importance score, bounding box, parent place hierarchy, linked Wikipedia/Wikidata articles and optional extratags. OSM type: N (node), W (way), R (relation). Get detailed info for an OSM object

get

Get status on Nominatim

Returns status message and response latency. Useful for verifying the service is operational before making other requests. Get Nominatim server status

lookup

Lookup osm on Nominatim

IDs are formatted as "type{id}" where type is N (node), W (way) or R (relation). Multiple IDs are comma-separated. Returns the object's display name, coordinates, bounding box and properties. Look up OSM objects by ID

reverse

Reverse geocode on Nominatim

Returns the nearest address, city, state, country and other location details. Supports different zoom levels for varying detail granularity. Convert coordinates to an address

action

Search on Nominatim

Returns results with coordinates, bounding box, display name, address components and OSM type/id. Supports structured searches with country codes and viewbox for region prioritization. Rate limited to 1 request/second. Search for places by name or address

Security & Code Integrity Audit

Every tool in the Nominatim MCP Server is continuously audited by the Vinkius Security Engine. We guarantee zero-trust payload isolation, strict data boundaries, and deterministic execution for enterprise-grade AI agents.

How Vinkius protects your data

How does the AI access my passwords and credentials?

It simply doesn't. On Vinkius, your passwords, API keys, and login details are kept in a secure vault. The AI (like ChatGPT or Claude) merely "asks" Vinkius to perform the task. Vinkius opens the door, does the work, and hands the result back to the AI. Your credentials are never seen, read, or learned by the artificial intelligence.

What happens if the underlying API rate limits my agent?

Our edge infrastructure automatically handles backoffs, queueing, and throttling. If an AI agent sends too many erratic requests, Vinkius manages the rate limits gracefully, ensuring your backend doesn't crash.

Do I need an API key?

No! Nominatim is completely free and requires no authentication. It's powered by the OpenStreetMap community. Just subscribe and start searching. Rate limit is 1 request per second.

Does the AI train on my tools or API data?

No. Vinkius enforces a strict Zero-Retention policy. Your data simply passes through our secure servers to complete the requested action and is instantly forgotten. Nothing you do here is ever stored, logged, or used to train any artificial intelligence.

What can AI Agents do with Nominatim?

The Nominatim integration provides comprehensive execution endpoints, allowing AI models to orchestrate tasks reliably.

AI Semantic Routing for geocoding

Use Nominatim to interface with geocoding via natural language. The toolkit provides Cursor with LLM-friendly schemas for developer tools tasks.

ChatGPT reverse geocoding Automation

Integrate the Nominatim server to handle reverse geocoding requests natively. It provides the schemas required for ChatGPT and Cursor to manage developer tools data.
