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.

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 LlamaIndex connect to MCP servers?
Use the MCP client adapter to create a connection. LlamaIndex discovers all tools and wraps them as query engine tools compatible with any LlamaIndex agent.
Can I combine MCP tools with vector stores?
Yes. LlamaIndex agents can query Maxar (Satellite Imagery) tools and vector store indexes in the same turn, combining real-time and embedded data for grounded responses.
Does LlamaIndex support async MCP calls?
Yes. LlamaIndex's async agent framework supports concurrent MCP tool calls for high-throughput data processing pipelines.
