Overpass.ch
Claude connectorCommunityQuery OpenStreetMap data of the whole planet, find places and addresses, and look up heights and elevation profiles.
overpass.ch connects Claude to the Overpass API on the full OpenStreetMap planet, updated every minute, with geocoding and elevation in the same account.
With it, Claude can:
- find, count and list what is mapped anywhere: shops, pharmacies, transit stops, buildings, roads, trails, charging stations, with their tags such as opening hours, operator or capacity
- find places and addresses by name, in English, German and French, and the address at a point
- look up the height of points and the elevation profile of a route: a 2 m grid in Switzerland and Liechtenstein, a 30 m grid elsewhere on land, depths at sea
- query the map at a past date, back to September 2012 (Medium and Large plans)
- find tested example queries for a topic
Example questions:
- How many pharmacies in Zürich are within 200 m of a tram stop?
- Which mountain huts in Valais lie above 2,500 m?
- List every EV charger in the canton of Bern with operator and power, as a table.
- How many cafés did Lausanne have in 2015, and how many today?
You sign in with your overpass.ch account; the free plan works. All tools only read data, and the calls count against the plan of your account like calls of the REST API.
