SXSW 2025
Powering the Future of Mobility with Open-Source Mapping
Description:
With each company creating their own maps with separate datasets, information gaps exist that undermine the quality of maps that customers need to move around the world.
With mobility challenges, traffic regulations, ride-hailing and EV adoption all on the rise, high-quality, standardized maps are more important than ever before. This can only happen if the whole industry works together.
By uniting the world’s leading mapmakers to create the richest open-source mapping dataset available today, mobility challenges can be solved faster and more efficiently.
