Geodistance

Geographic coordinate math MCP.

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1137+ live data sources.

Tools

Tool	Description
distance	Great-circle (haversine) distance between two lat/lon points. Returns the distance in km, miles, nautical miles, meters & feet, plus the initial compass bearing from point 1 to point 2.
destination	Given a start lat/lon, a bearing (degrees) and a distance, compute the destination point. unit = km (default), mi, nmi, m or ft.
dms_to_decimal	Parse a degrees-minutes-seconds coordinate string to decimal degrees. Accepts forms like "40°26′46″N" or "40 26 46 N" or "-73.5". Returns the decimal value.
decimal_to_dms	Convert decimal lat/lon to degrees-minutes-seconds strings.

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "geodistance": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/geodistance/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1137+ data sources:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Geodistance data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
