Resolve place to cell64 + band inventory
emem_locateResolve any real-world location to its canonical cell64 address and retrieve the topic-grouped bands and algorithms available at that cell.
Instructions
Mint the canonical, vendor-neutral address (cell64) for a real-world place: the shared spatial identity every agent resolves to identically, so two models refer to the same ground instead of two descriptions of it. Also returns the topic-grouped inventory of bands and algorithms recallable there. For a first-class OBJECT identity (a bridge, a plot, a named place) rather than a raw cell, use emem_entity. Send EITHER lat+lng as numbers OR a free-text place; coordinates win when both arrive. q, query and name are all accepted spellings of place. A key this schema does not declare is reported in _unrecognised_arguments, so a typo answers about somewhere else rather than erroring.
When to use: Use whenever the input refers to a real-world location and the next step needs the cell64 identifier or wants to know which bands are available before recalling. The response carries data_at_this_cell with three sub-fields: live_bands_by_topic (every band recallable here, grouped by topic such as flood_water_event_window, vegetation_condition, built_up_human_geography), algorithms_for_topic (composition recipes that fuse those bands into named scores), and declared_but_no_materializer_at_this_responder (cube slots reserved without a live connector). For the single-shot path that runs the full chain server-side and returns one packaged answer, use emem_ask instead.
Example arguments: {"place":"Mount Everest"}
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| q | No | Alias for `place`, accepted because OSM/Mapbox/Google Geocoding all use `q`. Provide either this or `place` (or `lat`+`lng`). | |
| lat | No | WGS-84 latitude in degrees, paired with `lng`. REQUIRED with `lng` unless `place`/`q` is provided. | |
| lng | No | WGS-84 longitude in degrees, paired with `lat`. REQUIRED with `lat` unless `place`/`q` is provided. | |
| name | No | Alias for `place`. | |
| place | No | Free-text place name (e.g. 'Mount Everest', 'Tokyo'). REQUIRED unless `lat`+`lng` is provided. Aliases also accepted: `q`, `query`, `name`. | |
| query | No | Alias for `place`. |
