MapParser MCP

A remote MCP server that allows AI assistants to parse Google Maps direction links to extract waypoints and coordinates, geocode addresses, retrieve route details like distance and time, and export data to CSV or KML formats. It also supports managing saved trips for authenticated users.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Map Parser turns Google Maps directions links into lists of stops with coordinates. Start with parse_map_link; pass its waypoints to get_route or export_waypoints. Personal tools (list_my_trips, get_trip, save_trip, update_trip, delete_trip) are available only with an agent token from https://mapparser.travel-tracker.org/ai-assistants.

parse_map_link — Parse Google Maps link
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Extract the stops (names and coordinates) of a Google Maps directions link, plus the likely region. Short links are expanded; links that hide stop names are opened in a headless browser, which can take up to a minute.

geocode — Geocode
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Look up a place name or address (forward) or a coordinate (reverse) with OpenStreetMap Nominatim. Returns the "State, Country code" region and the full address.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http mapparser-mcp https://mapparser.travel-tracker.org/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add mapparser-mcp --url https://mapparser.travel-tracker.org/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable mapparser-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mapparser-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mapparser.travel-tracker.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).
Cline configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mapparser-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://mapparser.travel-tracker.org/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start mapparser-mcp and inspect its tools.
VS Code configuration
{
  "servers": {
    "mapparser-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mapparser.travel-tracker.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http mapparser-mcp https://mapparser.travel-tracker.org/mcp

Claude Desktop

Merge this into claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart Claude Desktop.

      "url": "https://mapparser.travel-tracker.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
Windsurf configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mapparser-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mapparser.travel-tracker.org/mcp"
