Convert street addresses to coordinates (does not support points of interest)
AI agents call tomtom-geocode to retrieve information from TomTom MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Geocoding is a lookup/transformation service that retrieves location data without modifying any state. It has minimal blast radius—misuse would result in unnecessary API calls or exposure of address-to-coordinate mappings, but no destructive, financial, or code execution risks.
