NNG has launched a novel map offering for Dacia owners, NNG
Maps. The community-driven solution builds on OpenStreetMap (OSM),
a global map database used by millions of people worldwide,
layered with tailored automotive content and services from NNG and
its broad partner network. NNG Maps builds on over a decade of
in-house OSM experience to deliver a more feature-rich and fresher
navigation experience.
BUDAPEST, Hungary, July 2, 2024
/CNW/ -- NNG announced its partnership with Dacia to provide
NNG Maps, an OpenStreetMap-based map solution, for Dacia vehicles.
NNG Maps is a new, value-driven, and feature-rich community-sourced
map solution that lets Dacia drivers benefit from frequent map
updates, fresher map data, and richer content including greater
road network coverage and more points of interest (POIs).
OpenStreetMap is the largest crowdsourced repository of human
geospatial knowledge in the world. Built by a global community
of contributors that keep data about map features, including roads,
trails, cafés, and railway stations, continuously updated.
Contributors use aerial imagery, GPS devices, and field maps,
alongside other sources, to verify that OSM is accurate and
up-to-the-minute.
The solution from NNG starts with an OSM base-layer and allows
automakers to tailor their map to brand and customer preferences
using a broad, independent portfolio of additional content and
services. Leveraging two decades of map compilation and validation
expertise, NNG offers automakers bespoke map solutions that are
more feature-rich, have greater freshness, and are more frequently
updated. The new solution has proven to be a much-needed
development for drivers, with thousands already registered across
Europe, including France, Germany, and the
Netherlands.
"We have helped our partners evaluate and implement OSM-based
solutions, starting as far back as 2013." said Balázs
Bodorkós, Director of Product Management, NNG. "Our
expertise with maps, OSM, and our ongoing commitment to
collaboration with the OSM community, make us uniquely placed to
provide up-to-date, value-driven content solutions for the
automotive industry as it continues to evolve."
The benefits of NNG Maps come in part from the unique,
community-driven nature of OSM, but also from NNG's decades of
compilation expertise and its unique understanding of automakers
navigation-specific needs. The map solution guarantees not only
accurate and up-to-date information for Dacia drivers and other
automakers but also unparalleled coverage and expansion
capabilities. With NNG Maps, users can explore the world
confidently, knowing that their navigation needs are served by the
combination of OSM's community-driven data and NNG's navigation
expertise. Learn more in our free webinar.
NNG Maps is available now for Europe with further regional expansion planned
from 2025 onwards.
