Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

NPM package earth-2-elevation-mcp
Claude Code 
claude mcp add earth-2-elevation-mcp -- npx -y earth-2-elevation-mcp@0.1.1
JSON configuration (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code) 
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "earth-2-elevation-mcp": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": [
                "-y",
                "earth-2-elevation-mcp@0.1.1"

Earth-2 Elevation MCP

本地 stdio MCP 服务，把 Open-Elevation 的海拔查询接口包装成 MCP tools。

Tools

  • get_elevation: 查询单个经纬度的海拔，单位米。
  • get_elevations: 批量查询多个经纬度。
  • get_elevation_profile: 在两点之间均匀采样，生成路径海拔剖面。

Run

MCP 配置示例

把下面配置加到你的 MCP client 配置里，路径按本机实际目录调整：

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "earth-2-elevation": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "D:\\coding\\AI-project\\ai-mcp-factory\\src\\index.js"
      ],
      "env": {
        "OPEN_ELEVATION_BASE_URL": "https://api.open-elevation.com"
      }
    }
  }
}

Notes

Open-Elevation 的公开接口是 POST /api/v1/lookup，请求体格式如下：

{
  "locations": [
    { "latitude": 41.161758, "longitude": -8.583933 }
  ]
}

响应会按请求顺序返回 latitude、longitude、elevation。如果没有记录到该坐标的海拔，服务会返回海平面 0 米。
