At the same time, Here maintains the tradition of providing high-quality map and location data to the automotive industry and companies across the private sector. It is at this intersection where Here Technologies has introduced the next generation of location services on display at the company’s booth.


Here Technologies is modernising urban movement across all modes of transportation. From maximising fleet utilisation to perfecting on-demand delivery, from democratising shared transport to taking driver safety to new levels, the solutions from Here contribute to making powerful, connected transportation systems. With the Here Traffic Suite and Here Safety Services Suite, transportation agencies and road users can understand what’s happening on road networks in realtime. Meanwhile, the Here HD Live Map is a constantly updated, high-definition map that improves existing car ADAS functions and is essential to highly-automated and fully-automated vehicle deployments.

At the same time, smarter cities and transportation networks require the collection, enrichment and analysis of millions of terabytes of physical infrastructure, vehicular and environmental data. To do so, Here Technologies has created the Here Open Location Platform (OLP): a collaborative, location-centric environment that enables governments and enterprises to safely exchange and utilise mobility data.

Using location as the glue to link disparate datasets, Here Technologies says it is creating new collaborations and insights for the benefit of transportation agencies, cities, automakers and all entities across the mobility ecosystem.
