Here Lanes is a digital representation of the global road network that enables a vehicle to position itself while providing drivers with lane-level visual guidance, the company adds. 

Sheila Nedelcu, head of automated driving at Here, said at CES 2020 in Las Vegas: “Here Lanes delivers automakers and software developers the data they need to improve today’s ADAS functions in all weather conditions while building the next generation of applications supported by lane-level positioning, guidance and visualisation.”  

Here Lanes is expected to feed ADAS and mobile applications with precise lane topology, geometry and attribute data such as the rules of the road, vehicle height restrictions, lane count and centre line, direction of travel and the slope and curvature of intersections.

    Wireless transmission of data and control information is making smarter traffic management easier and cheaper to install. It has long been known that connectivity is the key to improving traffic management and many cost-benefit studies prove that investment in new technology can be justified in terms of reduced congestion, shorter travel times, improved safety and air quality. However, many authorities’ cap-ex budgets only cover urgent matters, not improvements, making it difficult, if not impossible to
