Relationship - Spatial Calculations

Calculate distance, direction, travel time, and human-readable descriptions between two points.

Setup

Get your API key from https://app.getcamino.ai
Add to your ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "env": {
    "CAMINO_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
  }
}

Restart Claude Code

Usage

Via Shell Script

# Calculate relationship between two points
./scripts/relationship.sh '{
  "start": {"lat": 40.7128, "lon": -74.0060},
  "end": {"lat": 40.7589, "lon": -73.9851}
}'

# Include specific calculations
./scripts/relationship.sh '{
  "start": {"lat": 40.7128, "lon": -74.0060},
  "end": {"lat": 40.7589, "lon": -73.9851},
  "include": ["distance", "direction", "travel_time", "description"]
}'

Via curl

curl -X POST -H "X-API-Key: $CAMINO_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"start": {"lat": 40.7128, "lon": -74.0060}, "end": {"lat": 40.7589, "lon": -73.9851}}' \
  "https://api.getcamino.ai/relationship"

Parameters

Field	Type	Required	Description
start	object	Yes	Starting point with lat/lon
end	object	Yes	Ending point with lat/lon
include	array	No	What to include: distance, direction, travel_time, description

Response Format

{
  "distance": {
    "meters": 5420,
    "kilometers": 5.42,
    "miles": 3.37
  },
  "direction": {
    "bearing": 42,
    "cardinal": "NE",
    "description": "northeast"
  },
  "travel_time": {
    "walking_minutes": 68,
    "driving_minutes": 15,
    "cycling_minutes": 22
  },
  "description": "5.4 km northeast, about 15 minutes by car"
}

Examples

Simple distance check

./scripts/relationship.sh '{
  "start": {"lat": 51.5074, "lon": -0.1278},
  "end": {"lat": 48.8566, "lon": 2.3522}
}'

Get only distance and direction

./scripts/relationship.sh '{
  "start": {"lat": 40.7128, "lon": -74.0060},
  "end": {"lat": 40.7589, "lon": -73.9851},
  "include": ["distance", "direction"]
}'

Use Cases

Proximity checks: Determine if two locations are within a certain distance
Direction guidance: Provide cardinal direction context (north, southeast, etc.)
Travel planning: Estimate travel times for different transport modes
Location context: Generate human-readable descriptions of spatial relationships
