Amap Navigator

Amap (Gaode Maps) navigation and location services for China.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

• The user asks for Chinese map services, navigation, or location queries
• Converting Chinese addresses to coordinates (geocoding) or vice versa
• Planning routes within mainland China
• Searching POIs (Points of Interest) such as restaurants, hotels, landmarks

Do NOT use this skill if:

• The location is outside mainland China → use global map services
• The task is general travel advice without specific addresses or coordinates
• You need map visualization slides → use pitch-deck-creator for presentation output

Typical triggers:

• 「查一下高德地图」「北京到上海路线」「附近餐厅搜索」
• "Amap navigation", "Chinese map API", "Gaode Maps routing"
• "地址转坐标", "POI搜索", "geocode address in China"

Workflow

Step 1: Identify User Intent

Determine if the request is for:

• Geocoding (address → coordinates)
• Reverse geocoding (coordinates → address)
• Route planning (origin → destination, driving / public transit / walking)
• POI search (nearby places by keyword and location)
• Distance calculation (batch distances between multiple points)

Step 2: Validate Inputs

• Ensure addresses are in Chinese or recognized English aliases
• Confirm coordinates use GCJ-02 (Mars Coordinates) as required by Amap
• Check that an Amap API key is available (stored securely via secure-key-manager)

Step 3: Call Amap API

Use the appropriate Amap Web Service API endpoint with proper parameters. Handle rate limits and retry on transient errors.

Step 4: Format Results

Return concise, user-friendly output in the user's preferred language:

• Route: distance, estimated time, toll info, step-by-step directions
• POI: name, address, distance, rating (if available)
• Geocode: formatted address + latitude/longitude

Guardrails

Anti-patterns

• NEVER expose the Amap API key in responses or logs
• NEVER assume WGS-84 coordinates for China (use GCJ-02)
• NEVER return raw JSON without human-readable formatting

Output Constraints

• Results must be localized to user's language (Chinese preferred for China contexts)
• Distances in kilometers or meters; times in minutes/hours
• Limit POI results to top 10-20 most relevant items

Error Handling

• Invalid address: suggest rephrasing or provide alternative spellings
• API rate limit: queue and retry after backoff
• Missing API key: prompt user to configure via secure-key-manager
