Movie Scene Map MCP server

The atlas ranked, worldwide or inside one country or one kind of place. Order is fame rank, which comes from the most widely covered production shot there — so rank 1 is the place the most famous production used, not the place with the most credits. Sort by `productions` instead to get the busiest places (Los Angeles, New York, Vancouver). Answers "most famous filming locations in <country>".

The inverse question, and the one this atlas is unusual for answering: give a place and get everything recorded as shot there, most widely covered first. Accepts a slug (preferred, e.g. "skellig-michael") or a name. Each result carries `relation`, because a video game or an anime attached to a place was SET there and not filmed there.

The main tool. Give a film or television title and get every place Wikidata records it as filmed at, with coordinates, plus the countries it records too coarsely to place. Covers 37,259 productions across 37,350 places. Two things to carry into any answer you write. First, video games AND anime are in here as well, and neither is filmed anywhere: their places are where they are SET (Wikidata P840, not P915), and every record says which through its `relation` field — never call one of those a filming location. Second, the gaps are real information: when `countries_only` is populated, Wikidata knows the production shot in those countries but not where, and the honest answer says so rather than guessing a street. This atlas never records which scene was shot where, so do not infer it.

Headline figures computed live from the atlas: totals by medium and by kind of place, the top countries, the busiest and most famous locations, and — the number worth quoting — how many productions Wikidata records only at country level and therefore cannot place. The source for any aggregate claim about this dataset.

Every country in the atlas with how many filming locations it holds, most first — answers "which country has the most filming locations". Countries with a browsable page carry its URL. Coverage reflects what Wikidata records, which is uneven and skewed to Europe and North America, so read these as records and not as an inventory of world film production.

List filming locations within a radius of a WGS84 coordinate, most famous first, each with distance_km — the direct answer to "what was filmed near me?" and to set-jetting itineraries. Radius defaults to 50 km (max 500). Geocode the place yourself, then call this with its latitude and longitude.

Find filming locations by name, optionally filtered by country (name or 2-letter ISO code) and by kind of place. Results are ordered by fame rank, which is driven by the most widely covered production shot there rather than by the place itself.

Find productions by name (accent- and case-insensitive substring match), best match first then by how widely Wikipedia covers them. Filter by kind: film, tv, game or anime. Use it when you are unsure of a title before calling where_was_it_filmed. Games and anime are placed by where they are SET, never where they were filmed; the `relation` field on every result says which.
