About OpenStreetMap MCP Server
Connect your AI agent to the world's largest open geographic database. This server enables full interaction with the OpenStreetMap API (v0.6), allowing you to query, create, and update geospatial data through natural conversation.
The Vercel AI SDK gives every OpenStreetMap tool full TypeScript type inference, IDE autocomplete, and compile-time error checking. Connect 33 tools through Vinkius and stream results progressively to React, Svelte, or Vue components. works on Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and any Node.js runtime.
What you can do
- Map Data Retrieval — Fetch raw OSM data (nodes, ways, relations) within specific bounding boxes for analysis or visualization.
- Element Management — Create, read, update, or delete map elements including points of interest (nodes), roads (ways), and complex boundaries (relations).
- Changeset Workflows — Open, update, and close changesets to group your edits and provide meaningful metadata to the OSM community.
- Historical Analysis — Retrieve the full version history of any map element to track changes over time.
- Advanced Querying — Filter changesets by user, time range, or geographic area to monitor local mapping activity.
The OpenStreetMap MCP Server exposes 33 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Vercel AI SDK in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
