Google Maps
OfficialConnects Google Maps Platform APIs to AI models through MCP, enabling natural language queries for places, routes, elevation data, and weather with 3D map visualization.
Discover official and open-source Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers from Google. This project provides an up-to-date directory of MCP servers for Google services like Google Maps. Explore examples and resources that help you build, integrate, and extend intelligent agents using Google's ecosystem of MCP solutions—all designed to streamline context-aware app development and experimentation.
What it does
- Search for places using natural language queries
- Calculate routes and travel directions
- Retrieve elevation data for geographic locations
- Look up weather information for trip planning
- Visualize results on interactive 3D maps
