NNG announced its partnership with Dacia to provide NNG Maps, an OpenStreetMap-based map solution, for Dacia vehicles. NNG Maps is a new, value-driven, and community-sourced map solution that lets Dacia drivers benefit from frequent map updates, fresher map data, and richer content including greater road network coverage and more points of interest (POIs).
OpenStreetMap is the crowdsourced repository of human geospatial knowledge in the world. Built by a global community of contributors that keep data about map features, including roads, trails, cafés, and railway stations, continuously updated. Contributors use aerial imagery, GPS devices, and field maps, alongside other sources, to verify that OSM is accurate and up-to-the-minute.
The solution from NNG starts with an OSM base-layer and allows automakers to tailor their map to brand and customer preferences using a broad, independent portfolio of additional content and services. The new solution has proven to be a development for drivers across Europe, including France, Germany, and the Netherlands.
The benefits of NNG Maps come in part from the community-driven nature of OSM, but also from NNG’s decades of compilation expertise and its unique understanding of automakers navigation-specific needs. The map solution provides accurate and up-to-date information for Dacia drivers and other automakers.
NNG Maps is available now for Europe with further regional expansion planned from 2025 onwards.
