FAQPage Schema
How do I choose the right Mapbox tool for geocoding and POI search?▼

To handle geocoding and POI search, you must choose between search_and_geocode_tool, category_search_tool, and reverse_geocode_tool based on whether you are doing branded lookups, generic category queries, or coordinate-to-address conversions.

What Mapbox parameters should I use for location discovery?▼

For location discovery, Mapbox parameters like proximity, bbox, country, and types are used to filter and refine results. Applying these parameters correctly ensures adherence to tool semantics and avoids common misuses.

Can I do a coordinate-to-address reverse geocode with Mapbox search patterns?▼

Yes, coordinate-to-address lookups are supported using the reverse_geocode_tool. This Mapbox search pattern specifically translates geographic coordinates into readable addresses by applying the correct output formats.

What is the best way to handle branded searches and generic category queries in Mapbox?▼

Branded searches and generic category queries require distinguishing between search_and_geocode_tool for specific brands and category_search_tool for broader categories. Selecting the proper tool ensures reliable geocoding and POI search results.

Why are my Mapbox geocoding results inaccurate for specific locations?▼

Inaccurate Mapbox geocoding results often stem from misusing tool semantics. Ensuring proper configuration of proximity, bbox, country, and types parameters is required to fulfill location discovery tasks and avoid irrelevant outputs.
