The final presentation of day 2, on “Content community and connectivity” was given as a double act between Amreesh Modi, Navteq, and Bruno Simon, Connexis. Navteq is a supplier of navigational technology and map data while Connexis co-developed the NGTP platform with BMW, which had been presented in the previous presentation. Both of these markets are being transformed by the challenge of Web 2.0, for instance, integrating mash-ups of map data with contextual information (see for instance Figure 17). There is also a requirement to reduce the latency in map updates and to increase response times. The Navteq/Connexis map updating system addresses this requirement.
