DaedalMap Geography Tools (loc_id)

Resolve Point(s) (Deep)

resolve_deep_point

Read-onlyIdempotent

Second-pass containment only after resolve_point. Supply the original WGS84 coordinate or a bounded point array, one shared shallow_loc_id returned by resolve_point, and one canonical family from get_catalog(catalog='geometry'). family defaults to administrative; shape-backed families use direct bbox-to-exact-shape lookup without crosswalks. Single and bulk requests share this scoped contract. Current catalog: The same geography tools work worldwide across a cataloged baseline of 252 geographic entities, reaching up to Admin 2. Where additional country releases are available, the same calls automatically return deeper administrative tiers or maintained reference families. Additional detail is currently available for Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Mexico, United Kingdom, United States.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`lat`	No	Latitude in WGS84 decimal degrees.
`lon`	No	Longitude in WGS84 decimal degrees.
`family`	No	One family selector. Defaults to administrative; use marine for the direct Marine resolver, or a canonical country family such as postal_area, watershed, or land_management_region.	administrative
`points`	No	Points already known to fall within the supplied shallow_loc_id scope.
`batch_id`	No	Optional caller-supplied batch id echoed for point arrays.
`request_id`	No	Optional caller-supplied request id for tracing.
`shallow_loc_id`	Yes	The deepest canonical Admin 1-3 loc_id returned by resolve_point, such as USA-NY-061-009903.
`target_admin_level`	No	Optional exact Admin 4-6 level. Omit for the deepest available match.

TDQS

A4/5.0

Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already cover read-only, idempotent, non-destructive and closed-world behavior, so the description's added value is the family routing note: shape-backed families use direct bbox-to-exact-shape lookup without crosswalks. That is real behavioral context an agent cannot get from annotations. It omits failure behavior, e.g. what happens if a point does not fall inside the supplied shallow_loc_id or if target_admin_level exceeds available depth.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The first sentences are well front-loaded and dense with routing information. The trailing 'Current catalog' paragraph is lengthy boilerplate about worldwide coverage and country releases that is only marginally relevant to invoking this specific tool, and it dilutes the actionable content.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With an output schema present, return values need no explanation, and the description covers the prerequisite chaining, family vocabulary, and catalog scope needed to call correctly. What is missing is edge-case behavior for out-of-scope points and unavailable admin depths, which matters for a chained second-pass tool.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents lat/lon, points, shallow_loc_id, family, and target_admin_level. The description adds some meaning about family selection (canonical families from get_catalog, administrative default) but does not touch target_admin_level or the optional batch_id/request_id echo semantics. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific operation and scope: 'Second-pass containment only after resolve_point', with the required inputs enumerated. It clearly separates itself from resolve_point (first pass) and, by naming the point/array contract, from the bbox variant.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives an explicit precondition ('only after resolve_point') and points to get_catalog(catalog='geometry') for valid family values, plus clarifies that bulk arrays use the same contract rather than a separate tool. It does not explicitly say when to prefer resolve_deep_bbox, but the point-vs-bbox distinction is implied by the coordinate/array framing.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
