What you can do

What your AI can do with Filming Locations

Real prompts you can type the moment it's connected — no setup, no docs to read.

Use “where_was_it_filmed”: 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.

Use “search_productions”: Find productions by name (accent- and case-insensitive substring match), best match first then by how widely Wikipedia covers them. Filter b.

Use “what_was_filmed_here”: The inverse question, and the one this atlas is unusual for answering: give a place and get everything recorded as shot there, most widely c.

Use “search_locations”: 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.

Security check

How secure is the Filming Locations MCP server?

Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how Filming Locations holds up.

Verified directory serverFilming Locations · thefilmmap.com

Official endpoint

Operated by Filming Locations (thefilmmap.com) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.

No sign-in needed

This server only exposes public data — no account and no credentials are involved when you connect.

Scanned before it goes live

gate checks every tool for prompt injection, hidden instructions, data-exfiltration hints, and over-broad permissions before the server is available through your gateway.

Watched for drift

If Filming Locations adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
