Mapping data specialist 7643 Here and Berlin-based electric vehicle (EV) charging provider 8444 Hubject are to collaborate in a venture that will enable EV drivers who use Here-powered navigation to access real time information on all charging stations in the intercharge network.

Integrating information on charging stations from the Hubject platform with the Here mapping system will make it easier for customers to locate charging stations for their electric vehicles, say the companies.

The collaboration will enable the inclusion of information on charging stations across all providers, such as address, connector type and power, along with dynamic data on occupancy and the availability of parking spaces in front of charging stations. Real time transfer of static and dynamic data will be fully automated via the Hubject platform.

Here maps are used in many vehicles integrated in-dash navigation systems in North America and Western Europe, as well as in stand-alone apps for smartphones and tablets; these users will now have access to Hubject’s comprehensive information on charging stations in its network.
