HERE wins top spot for mapping and traffic in Ovum Location Platform Index
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Berlin, Germany - Market-leading research and consulting firm Ovum awarded HERE
the top spot in mapping and traffic data in its most recent semi-annual Location
Platform Index.
Ovum gave HERE an overall score of 8.02 and the clear number one spot in its
'completeness' index, which rates the overall capabilities of providers in the
location-based services market.
The score reflected HERE's leadership position in mapping data, traffic and
signage information, the feature set of its location platform, the ability for
customers to access data across different devices, as well as its applicability
across different industries.
"HERE's customer footprint spans the automotive, enterprise and consumer
domains, giving it tremendous reach. That and its high score for completeness
places HERE firmly in the Leaders category of Ovum's Location Platform Index,"
said Neha Dharia, Senior Analyst at Ovum.
HERE maps draw on 30 years of cartography experience and over 80,000 sources of
data. HERE has maps in 196 countries, turn-by-turn navigation for 118 countries
and transit maps and routing for public transit in over 970 cities worldwide.
Many of the world's leading automotive, enterprise and Internet companies trust
HERE map data and platform services to run their businesses. For example, HERE
is one of the few mapping companies that collects dedicated truck-specific road
attributes for trucking companies.
In addition, HERE has made its HERE app available to consumers around the world.
HERE launched the app in the Google Play store in December and in the Apple App
Store in March, with more than 8 million downloads to date.
