TomTom - mobile and mapping critical infrastructure. Fresh dynamic maps for today's world #ESRIUC  E-mail
Written by GISuser   
23 July 2010

At the 2010 ESRIUC, TomTom / Tele Atlas held an informal lunch presentation design to update and inform attendees about the company and, more specifically, their enterprise solution offerings. Key to the presentation was the company's response to the question, how does TomTom fit into enterprise? 


It was interesting to see and hear of the company's time line of key events and milestones, these include:

  • Multinet NA launch 2003
  • Mobile mapping vans introduced in 2004
  • Address points, POI, 2D city maps, and 3D landmrks 2005
  • Slected as map provider for Nokia, RIM, BMW 2006
  • The 2007 Tele Atlas acquisition by TomTom
  • 2008- the addition of community input to update maps via "mapshare" (see http://www.clubtomtom.com/general/get-to-know-tomtom-mapshare
  • 2009 - introduction of speed profiles and HD traffic
  • live services and temporal data... now

Key accomplishments

  • Navigable data in over 100 countries
  • 20 million miles of roads in their DB


Core markets are mobile and mapping critical infrastructure
Data sources include:

  • field surveys
  • aerial mapping
  • aerial pohoto
  • satellite
  • aerial photos
  • mobile mapping vans
  • paper maps
  • community input

Crowd sourcing data is fundamental to the business: billions of speed measurements are collected every day:

  • 2 trillion speed measurements collected globally
  • 500 mill speed measurements in NA
  • Develop custom travel time maps
  • HD flow and HD route times


The company also provide TomTom Work, connected fleet & workforce management solution offering
"fresh dynamic maps for  today's world".  Earlier in 20210, TomTom announced 2 new solutions as part of the TomTom Work offering - The Remote LINK Working Time device enables businesses to track the working hours of every employee in the field. The Remote LINK Logbook, meanwhile, gives an accurate record of work-related and personal mileage.
