What is the LocationIQ (Geocoding & Maps) MCP Server?
Connect your LocationIQ account to any AI agent and take full control of affordable geocoding, routing, and geospatial intelligence through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Geocoding & Search — Convert address strings into precise GPS coordinates and use autocomplete to retrieve suggestions for partial location queries directly from your agent
- Reverse Geocoding — Convert latitude and longitude coordinates into human-readable addresses, including precise postal data and localized language translations
- Advanced Routing — Calculate optimal driving, walking, or cycling paths between multiple coordinates with support for OSRM-based navigation instructions
- Distance Matrices — Compute travel duration and distance tables between multiple origins and destinations to optimize logistics and delivery workflows
- Road Snapping — Perfectly align messy GPS signals to the exact street network using native snapping configurations for accurate fleet tracking
- Geo-Fencing & Filtering — Restrict searches within specific country ISO codes or geographic bounding boxes to ensure data relevancy and regional compliance
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your LocationIQ API Key
- Start building location-aware applications from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Software Developers — integrate geocoding and routing services into AI agents and validate coordinate results through natural conversation
- Logistics Managers — calculate optimal routes and distance matrices for delivery fleets without manual GIS software
- Data Analysts — clean and enrich datasets with precise geolocation and postal address metadata efficiently

Frequently asked questions
Can I convert GPS coordinates back to a physical address using my agent?
Yes. Use the reverse_geocode tool by providing the latitude and longitude. Your agent will return the human-readable address, including the house number, street, city, and postal code.
How do I calculate the travel time between multiple points?
The calculate_distance_matrix tool allows you to submit a list of coordinates. Your agent will return a duration table for the specified profile (driving or walking), helping you optimize multi-stop routes.
Can my agent check how many API requests I have remaining?
Absolutely. Use the check_account_balance tool to retrieve your current credit status. Your agent will report exactly how many OpenStreetMap queries remain for your API key during the current period.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
