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 /PRNewswire/ -- 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 Bal
