Connect your Jawg Maps account to any AI agent and take full control of professional map services and geospatial analytics through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Place Search & Geocoding — Find addresses and points of interest (POI) by text or resolve GPS coordinates to physical locations directly from your agent
- Advanced Routing — Calculate optimal paths for driving, biking, or walking with support for multiple waypoints and transportation profiles
- Distance Matrices — Compute massive travel time and distance tables between multiple origins and destinations for logistics optimization
- Reachability Isochrones — Visualize reachable areas from a center point based on precise travel time or distance limits (drive-time polygons)
- Elevation Profiles — Retrieve the altitude and elevation above sea level for specific coordinates or along a calculated route path
- Geo-Filtering — Perform restricted searches within specific ISO country borders to ensure data accuracy and regional compliance
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Jawg Access Token
- Start building location-aware applications from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

Frequently asked questions
Can I calculate how far I can travel in 15 minutes from my current location?
Yes. Use the calculate_reachability_isochrone tool by providing your center coordinates and a range of 900 seconds. Your agent will return a polygon representing the reachable area, perfect for analyzing site accessibility.
How do I find the elevation profile along a delivery route?
The calculate_elevation_routing tool calculates detailed paths that include Z-axis data. Your agent will return the routing instructions along with the altitude for each point, helping you optimize for heavy loads or fuel consumption.
Can I compute travel times between dozens of points at once?
Absolutely. Use the calculate_distance_matrix tool to submit arrays of origin and destination coordinates. Your agent will return a matrix of durations and distances, making it ideal for fleet route optimization.
How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?
When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.
What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?
Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.
Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?
Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.
Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?
Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.
Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?
Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
Server not appearing after restart
Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).
Authentication error
Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.
Tools not showing in chat
Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
