Implementation Reference

  • The handler function that implements the get_length tool logic, using Shapely to compute the length of a WKT geometry and return it in a standardized dict format. The @gis_mcp.tool() decorator registers it as an MCP tool.
    @gis_mcp.tool()
    def get_length(geometry: str) -> Dict[str, Any]:
        """Get the length of a geometry."""
        try:
            from shapely import wkt
            geom = wkt.loads(geometry)
            return {
                "status": "success",
                "length": float(geom.length),
                "message": "Length calculated successfully"
            }
        except Exception as e:
            logger.error(f"Error calculating length: {str(e)}")
            raise ValueError(f"Failed to calculate length: {str(e)}")
  • Resource handler that lists 'get_length' among available measurement operations for discovery.
    @gis_mcp.resource("gis://operations/measurements")
    def get_measurements() -> Dict[str, List[str]]:
        """List available measurement operations."""
        return {
            "operations": [
                "get_length",
                "get_area"
            ]
        }
