Woosmap MCP Server
Connect AI assistants to Woosmap APIs. Enable LLMs to search addresses, find stores, generate maps, and more.
What is the Woosmap MCP Server?
The Woosmap MCP Server enables AI assistants and large language models (LLMs) to interact with Woosmap location services through the Model Context Protocol. This allows AI applications to access to real world local context and search for addresses, find nearby stores, generate maps, and access other Woosmap capabilities.
How to access it?
The MCP Server endpoint is available at:
https://api.woosmap.com/mcp
It exposes a curated set of tools powered and secured by a Woosmap Private API Key.

Why using the Woosmap MCP Server?
Public Large Language Models (LLMs) are powerful reasoning engines, but they often struggle with spatial tasks or real world context. They may hallucinate coordinates, lack knowledge of recent location data, and have no access to your private organization’s data.
The Woosmap MCP Server bridges this gap by grounding your AI in real-world location intelligence. By connecting your Agents or LLMs to Woosmap, you transform a text-based model into a spatially aware agent capable of:
- Eliminating Approximation: Replacing “guessed” coordinates with precise, validated geocoding data.
- Querying Your Private Data: Enabling the AI to search your specific store network (not just public POIs) to answer customer-specific questions like “Where is the nearest branch with this product?”
- Visualizing Context: Moving beyond text descriptions by generating actual map images with rich local context.
Key Features
Location & Address Tools
- geocode_address: Converts an address or place name into geographic coordinates (
lat,lng). - reverse_geocode: Converts geographic coordinates into a structured address with contextual information.
Search Tools
- find_nearby: Finds Points of Interest (POIs) around a location within a defined radius (restaurants, shops, hospitals, transport hubs, etc.).
- find_stores_nearby: Search through your custom assets/stores stored in Woosmap (not public POI data).
- get_place_details: Retrieve detailed information about a specific place: opening hours, contact info, ratings, categories, and address.
Mapping Tools
- create_static_map: Generates a customizable static map with markers, paths, polygons, and configurable zoom.
To ensure maximum relevance, the Woosmap MCP Server combines the capabilities to search over “public” data and your own data. Once integrated in your own AI use case and prompt properly, you’ll benefit from the best of both.
find_nearby, geocode_address, reverse_geocode, get_place_details → Search public POI data (restaurants, landmarks, businesses worldwide).
find_stores_nearby → Search your custom assets stored in Woosmap (your stores, locations, facilities with your own data structure).
Do you want to know more? You can ask the MCP server to introduce itself. Try asking: “Please list and explain the Woosmap location tools you have access to”.
Use Cases
AI-Powered Locators - Build conversational interfaces, with local context capabilities, where users can ask “Find coffee shops near me” or “What’s the closest store to downtown London?”
Intelligent Address Input - Let users describe addresses naturally and have the AI resolve them to structured location data.
Map generation into your AI workflows - Transform abstract data into immediate visual context.
