Amap Maps is an MCP server compatible with any MCP protocol client. It enables users to access a variety of location-based services.
To get started, configure it in a supported client (e.g., Cursor). This involves adding your API key and setting the correct server command as outlined in the documentation.
Key features include support for multiple services: geocoding, weather, and distance measurement. It also offers APIs for different transportation modes such as walking, driving, and public transit. Additionally, it allows detailed searches for points of interest (POIs) using keywords or specific locations.
Common use cases are converting geographic coordinates into addresses, planning routes for cycling, walking, or driving, and searching for nearby points of interest based on custom criteria.
Frequently asked questions: What services does it provide? It offers geocoding, weather data, distance measurement, and multi-modal route planning. Are there request limits? Limits depend on your API key and the specific service; consult the Amap documentation for details. How do I get an API key? You can obtain one by creating a project on the Amap developer platform.
