here_discover

Pack: here · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/here_discover for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Find places / points of interest (restaurants, shops, landmarks, gas stations, etc.) near a location via HERE — “coffee near Times Square”, “pharmacies near 48.85,2.35”, “hardware stores in Austin”. Returns name, category, address, coordinates, distance, and contact info. The near location can be a place name (geocoded automatically) or “lat,lng”.

Parameters

NameTypeRequiredDescription
querystringyesWhat to search for, e.g. “coffee”, “pharmacy”, “hardware store”.
nearstringyesPlace name (e.g. “Times Square, New York”) or “lat,lng” (e.g. “40.758,-73.985”) to search around.
limitnumbernoMax results (default 10, max 50).
radius_kmnumbernoOnly return places within this many km of near (default 100, max 1000). HERE ranks by relevance, so without this a query that matches a business NAME can return that business on another continent.
