What is the OpenRouteService MCP Server?
Unlock the full power of OpenRouteService from a single conversation. Calculate driving routes, generate reachability maps, solve vehicle routing problems, and geocode addresses — all backed by OpenStreetMap data.
What you can do
- Directions — Calculate optimal routes between multiple waypoints for car, bicycle, or pedestrian profiles with distance and duration
- Isochrones — Generate reachability polygons showing areas accessible within a given time or distance from any point
- Distance Matrix — Compute M×N duration and distance matrices between multiple origins and destinations
- VRP Optimization — Solve multi-vehicle routing problems with jobs, vehicles, and capacity constraints using the VROOM solver
- Geocoding — Forward and reverse geocode addresses using Pelias, with country boundary filters
- GPS Snap — Clean noisy GPS traces by snapping coordinates to the nearest road segment
- Elevation — Get altitude data for coordinate sequences using the elevation API
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your OpenRouteService API Key
- Start planning routes from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Logistics teams — optimize multi-stop delivery routes and estimate travel times between warehouses and customers
- Urban planners — analyze accessibility with isochrone maps showing 5/10/15-minute reachability zones
- Field service managers — plan technician routes solving vehicle routing problems with capacity and time window constraints

Why Cline?
Cline operates autonomously inside VS Code. it reads your codebase, plans a strategy, and executes multi-step tasks including OpenRouteService tool calls without waiting for prompts between steps. Connect 10 tools through Vinkius and Cline can fetch data, generate code, and commit changes in a single autonomous run.

Frequently asked questions
Is the OpenRouteService API free?
Yes. ORS offers a free Standard plan with generous daily limits for all services (directions, isochrones, matrix, geocoding, and optimization). No credit card required. Higher rate limits are available through the Collaborative plan for non-profits, academics, and government organizations.
What routing profiles are supported?
ORS supports driving-car, driving-hgv (heavy goods vehicles), cycling-regular, cycling-road, cycling-mountain, cycling-electric, foot-walking, foot-hiking, and wheelchair. Each profile optimizes routes based on road network restrictions specific to that transportation mode.
Can I solve vehicle routing problems with time windows and capacity constraints?
Yes. The VRP optimization tool uses the VROOM solver. Define jobs with locations, service times, and time windows, then define vehicles with start/end locations, capacities, and operating hours. The solver returns optimized assignments and routes for your entire fleet.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
