Give Claude and any AI agent real-world access

Check site conditions with high-res imagery

You can pull vertical aerial tiles down to sub-15cm resolution using coordinates to verify exactly what's happening on a specific piece of land.

Extract structures and features automatically

The tool scans the imagery and pulls out vector shapes for common elements like buildings, pools, solar panels, and vegetation so you don't have to trace them manually.

Analyze building facades from multiple angles

Access 3D-angled views pointing North, South, East, or West. This is perfect for auditing structural details or measuring building height without site visits.

Audit survey history and coverage

Verify if imagery exists across a specific point or complex polygon, and pull up the dates of previous surveys to track changes over time.

Model ground elevation and terrain volume

Extract Digital Surface Model (DSM) tiles that let you analyze building height, surface peaks, and overall topographic volumes.

The problem with manual geospatial auditing

Today, checking a site's full context means opening at least three different applications: the base map, the structural overlay, and the elevation profile. You spend time clicking between tabs, cross-referencing dates in spreadsheets, and manually compiling what looks like one cohesive picture.

With this MCP, your agent handles the data stitching for you. Instead of juggling layers, you ask a single question—like 'What was the roof condition last year?'—and get an answer synthesized from multiple sources: historical imagery, structural detection, and survey metadata.

Nearmap (High-Res Aerial Imagery & AI) MCP

You no longer have to manually query for specific data types. You don't need to open the dedicated tool just to see solar panels, or another tool just to check elevation.

Now you ask your agent one comprehensive question—for example, 'Show me the true ortho tile and detect all pools.' The system executes both analyses simultaneously, giving you a single, actionable result.

What Nearmap MCP does for your AI

Tired of opening ten different GIS layers just to check a property? This MCP connects your AI client directly to Nearmap’s world-class geospatial data. You can ask natural questions—like 'Show me the roof condition for this building and tell me if there are any solar arrays visible.' Your agent handles the rest, pulling together vertical imagery tiles, structural measurements, and AI-detected features instantly.

Instead of downloading multiple complex datasets, you get a single conversation that synthesizes everything from topographic models to oblique views. Because Vinkius hosts this MCP, all your specialized geospatial tools live in one place, accessible through any compatible client.

Frequently asked questions about Nearmap MCP

How do I check if my coordinates are covered by Nearmap imagery? +

You use the check_coverage_point tool. This verifies if Nearmap captured data exists at your exact latitude and longitude, and it provides temporal history for that point.

Can I detect solar panels using the Nearmap MCP? +

Yes, use get_ai_detected_features. This tool automatically extracts vector geometries specifically for identifying solar arrays and other roof components within a given radius.

What is the difference between true ortho and vertical imagery tiles in Nearmap? +

True Ortho (get_true_ortho_tile) provides top-down, geometric alignment for perfect mapping. Vertical tiles (get_vertical_tile) provide a straight-down view of the captured boundaries.

Do I need to worry about structural facades when auditing buildings? +

Use get_oblique_tile. This retrieves 3D-angled imagery that lets you look at the side and front of a building, giving you clear views of the structural facade and roof orientation.

How can I get elevation data for a site? +

You call get_dsm_elevation_tile. This extracts the Digital Surface Model (DSM) tiles needed to analyze terrain peaks, building heights, and surface volumes.
