What is the Jawg Maps (Location & Routing) MCP Server?
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
Who is this for?
- GIS Developers — integrate geocoding and routing services into AI agents and test API results through natural conversation
- Logistics Planners — calculate optimal routes and distance matrices for delivery fleets and supply chain management
- Urban Researchers — analyze city accessibility and elevation data across different geographic regions efficiently
Built-in capabilities (10)

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings Jawg Maps (Location & Routing) data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 10 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

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.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
