Access Geolocation and Walkability Data

Geolocation MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server that provides geolocation services including WalkScore API integration for walkability, transit, and bike scores.

Features

• Transit Stops: Find nearby transit stops for any location
• WalkScore: Get walkability scores for any address
• TransitScore: Get public transit accessibility scores
• BikeScore: Get bikeability scores for locations
• Location-based: Works with addresses, coordinates, or both

Available Tools

• get_transit_stops - Get nearby transit stops for a location
• get_walkscore - Get WalkScore, TransitScore, and BikeScore for a location

Quick Start

1. Get a WalkScore API key from walkscore.com/professional/api.php
2. Install the server: uvx mcp-server-geolocation
3. Configure your MCP client (see Configuration section below)
4. Start using the tools in your MCP-compatible application

Configuration

You'll need a WalkScore API key from walkscore.com/professional/api.php.

Configure for Claude.app

Add to your Claude settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "geolocation": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-server-geolocation"],
      "env": {
        "WALKSCORE_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Configure for VS Code

Add to your VS Code settings:

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "geolocation": {
        "command": "uvx",
        "args": ["mcp-server-geolocation"],
        "env": {
          "WALKSCORE_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Usage

Once configured, the server provides two main tools:

get_transit_stops

Find nearby transit stops for any location:

• Input: Latitude and longitude coordinates
• Output: List of nearby transit stops with routes and distances

get_walkscore

Get walkability scores for any location:

• WalkScore: Measures how walkable a location is (0-100)
• TransitScore: Measures public transit accessibility (0-100)
• BikeScore: Measures bikeability (0-100)

Input options:

• An address (string) - e.g., "123 Main St, Seattle, WA"
• Latitude and longitude coordinates - e.g., 47.6085, -122.3295
• Both address and coordinates for better accuracy

Example usage in Claude:

• "Find transit stops near 40.7136, -73.9909"
• "What's the walkability score for 123 Main St, Seattle, WA?"

Installation

Using uv (recommended)

uvx mcp-server-geolocation
