`geocode`

Pack: maptiler · 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/geocode for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

“Geocode [address]” / “find coordinates of [place]” / “lat lng for [city]” / “search OpenStreetMap-backed places” — forward geocoding via MapTiler (OpenStreetMap-curated). Returns ranked candidates with lat/lng, address components, and feature IDs for re-lookup via geocode_by_id. Alternative to Mapbox/Google geocoders when you want OSM data.
