| defs-autocomplete | Quickly retrieve all definitions matching a query. Limited to 100 results |
| mineral-info | Get information about a mineral, use one property |
| timescale | Get information about a time period |
| lat-lng-to-tile | Convert latitude/longitude coordinates to map tile coordinates (x, y) for a given zoom level. Uses the same web mercator projection as MapKit. |
| map-tiles | Get map tile URLs from the Macrostrat tiles server. Use lat-lng-to-tile tool first to get proper x,y coordinates. Defaults to 'carto' scale which automatically adapts detail level to zoom. |
