How to Build Location Features with OpenClaw
Location-based features with OpenClaw and ToolRouter. Geocoding for any application.
Tool
OpenClaw powers full geocoding pipelines, processing both forward and reverse geocoding in batch with structured output for each direction. Build end-to-end location data workflows, validate address-to-coordinate round trips at scale, and generate the coordinate infrastructure that location-based features depend on.
Connect ToolRouter to OpenClaw
1Install the CLI
npm install -g toolrouter-mcp2Call tools directly from OpenClaw
toolrouter-mcp call web-search search --query "AI tools"
toolrouter-mcp toolsSteps
Once connected (see setup above), use the Address Geocoding tool:
- Ask OpenClaw: "Geocode these addresses and reverse geocode these coordinates"
- OpenClaw processes both directions and returns the complete results
- Integrate the location data into your application
Example Prompt
Try this with OpenClaw using the Address Geocoding tool
Geocode my 15 office addresses and reverse geocode the GPS coordinates from our fleet tracker. I need both datasets for the operations dashboard.
Tips
- Test with a small sample before processing your entire dataset to validate the workflow
- Combine forward and reverse geocoding to build round-trip validation into your pipeline
