Tools of GeoSpark
	Description		Read-only	Idempotent	Open world
`calculate_distance`Exact geodesic distance between two places or geometries on the WGS84 ellipsoid. Use for any "how far" question instead of estimating. For NAMED places pass place_a and place_b; the server geocodes them, so never type coordinates for a place yourself. Use point_a/point_b only for coordinates the user gave or another tool returned. For lines and polygons the distance is between their nearest points. Returns metres and kilometres.	Exact geodesic distance between two places or geometries on the WGS84 ellipsoid.

`check_spatial_relationship`Ground-truth topology: does geometry_a <relationship> geometry_b? Use instead of guessing containment, overlap or adjacency. Invalid geometries (for example self-intersecting polygons) are refused with the reason.	Ground-truth topology: does geometry_a <relationship> geometry_b?

`convert_height`Convert a height between the ellipsoid (GNSS, drones) and a national height datum with the official geoid model: AHD (AUSGeoid2020), ODN (OSGM15), NZVD2016 (NZGeoid2016), NAVD88 (GEOID18), or global EGM2008. Never estimate a geoid separation from memory: it is often tens of metres and varies by metres across a region.

`geocode`Find coordinates for an address or place name (OpenStreetMap Nominatim).

`overture_features`Open global map data from Overture Maps, no API key: points of interest (with categories), building footprints (height, floors, geodesic footprint area), road and path segments (geodesic length), or `divisions`, the administrative areas containing the point (country, region, city, neighbourhood). Results are nearest first, with distances in metres. Can take 5-20 s on a cold cache.

`terrain_horizon`The skyline the terrain makes around a point: for each azimuth, the elevation angle of the horizon and how far away the blocking terrain is (Copernicus 30 m DEM, Earth curvature and refraction).

Uses national grids (downloaded once), refuses PROJ's ballpark approximations, and returns the operation and its stated accuracy. Use this instead of applying datum parameters yourself.
