What is the Maxar (Satellite Imagery) MCP Server?
Connect to Maxar, the world leader in high-resolution satellite imagery, and integrate earth intelligence directly into your AI workflows. This server allows you to query the Maxar Discovery Service, manage orders, and access OGC-compliant streaming services.
What you can do
- Imagery Discovery — Search for available satellite imagery using spatial bounding boxes, temporal filters, and specific satellite collections (like WorldView-3).
- Product Ordering — Request delivery of specific imagery products (visual, multispectral, or panchromatic) directly to your cloud storage.
- ARD Metadata — Retrieve detailed metadata for Analysis Ready Data (ARD) tiles to streamline your geospatial analysis.
- Streaming Access — Get base URLs for OGC-compliant streaming services (WMS, WMTS) to visualize imagery in GIS applications or custom dashboards.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Maxar Client ID and Client Secret
- Start querying the planet from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Geospatial Analysts — Quickly find and inspect imagery for specific regions without leaving your analysis environment.
- Data Scientists — Automate the discovery and ordering of training data for machine learning models.
- GIS Developers — Retrieve streaming endpoints and tile metadata to power custom mapping applications.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Maxar (Satellite Imagery) in Google ADK
The Maxar (Satellite Imagery) MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 4 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in Google ADK only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.
* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
Maxar (Satellite Imagery) for Google ADK
Every tool call from Google ADK to the Maxar (Satellite Imagery) MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I search for satellite imagery in a specific geographic area?
You can use the search_discovery tool by providing a bounding box (bbox) array with [min_lon, min_lat, max_lon, max_lat] coordinates and an optional datetime interval.
Can I get streaming links for use in GIS software like QGIS or ArcGIS?
Yes! Use the get_mws_endpoints tool to retrieve the base URLs for OGC-compliant WMS and WMTS services provided by Maxar Web Services.
What information is required to order a specific image?
To use the create_order tool, you need the unique item_id of the image, the desired product_type (e.g., visual), and a delivery_config JSON specifying the destination.
How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?
Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.
Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.
Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?
Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
