Here och Mobileye samarbetar om autopilot-teknologi

Nokias tidigare karttjänst Here, som nu är såld till ett konsortium av tyska biltillverkare, inleder nu ett samarbete med det israeliska autopilot-företaget Mobileye. Tanken är att man tillsammans ska skapa en plattform som biltillverkare kan bygga självkörande fordon på. Mobileye ligger bland annat bakom mycket av den teknologi som Tesla använder på området.

Here is a company co-owned by German automotive companies Audi, BMW, and Daimler. Here is a multi-faceted business in the provision of mapping data, technologies and services to the automotive, consumer and enterprise sectors. The technology of Here is based on a cloud-computing model, in which location data and services are stored on remote servers so that users have access to it regardless of which device they use. Here's origins lie in Navteq (styled "NAVTEQ"), an American company founded in 1985 as Karlin & Collins, Inc., later known as Navigation Technologies Corporation and eventually as Navteq. The company was acquired by Finnish telecommunications firm Nokia in 2008 and became a subsidiary. Nokia ran Navteq's business along with their own Nokia Maps (later known as Ovi Maps, then again as Nokia Maps from 2011), which was based on technology from Gate5, a Berlin-based company that Nokia purchased in 2006. The two remained as separate entities of Nokia Corporation until Navteq was amalgamated into the core Nokia operations in 2011. The service was rebranded as Here in 2012, bringing together mapping, location businesses, satellite navigation and other services under one brand. Nokia sold Here to a consortium of German companies, Audi, BMW and Daimler, in December 2015. Here captures location content such as road networks, buildings, parks and traffic patterns. It then sells or licenses that mapping content, along with navigation services and location solutions to other businesses such as Alpine, Garmin, BMW, Oracle and Amazon.com. In addition, Here provides platform services to many mobile devices operating systems. It delivers location services through Here applications, provides solutions for GIS and government clients and powers major mapping providers, such as Bing, Facebook and (formerly) Yahoo! Maps. Here has maps in nearly 200 countries, offers voice guided navigation in 94 countries, provides live traffic information in 33 countries and has indoor maps available for about 49,000 unique buildings in 45 countries. As of December 2015 the company has 6500 employees.
