Mcp

Overview

Mcp is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: OpenStreetMap queries as MCP tools, served by the Overspan hosted Overpass API. Because it speaks the Model Context Protocol, AI assistants can use Mcp as a set of callable tools instead of you copy-pasting between apps.

It runs locally: the npm package overspan-mcp speaks MCP over stdio on your machine. Configuration happens through environment variables — you'll need OVERSPAN_API_KEY. The current release is v0.1.2, published under the MIT license, with source at julesmaxxx/overspan-mcp on GitHub.

On mcp.site, Mcp sits in the Development category. Any MCP client can use it — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed among them — via the install snippets below.
