FAQPage Schema
How do I find nearby restaurants or cafes using OpenStreetMap data?

You can find nearby restaurants or cafes by providing a location such as coordinates, an address, a city name, or a ZIP code. The skill queries OpenStreetMap Overpass and Nominatim to return structured results with distance and map links.

Do I need an API key to query nearby places from OpenStreetMap?

No API keys are required to query nearby places. The skill uses OpenStreetMap's Overpass and Nominatim services directly to fetch venue data like amenities, operating hours, and phone numbers without authentication.

Can I use a street address or ZIP code to search for nearby pharmacies?

Yes, you can use a street address or ZIP code to search for nearby pharmacies. The skill geocodes addresses into coordinates automatically and gracefully handles geocoding errors if the location cannot be resolved.

What details are included with nearby location search results?

Nearby location search results include distance, venue type, and maps or directions links. Optional details such as cuisine type, operating hours, phone number, and website are also provided when available in the OpenStreetMap data.

What happens when an address cannot be geocoded or returns no results?

When an address cannot be geocoded or returns no results, the skill handles the error gracefully. It processes empty results without failing, ensuring the agent receives a clean response rather than crashing during the Overpass or Nominatim query.
