The Ultimate Pedestrian Guide
There is a growing demand for relevant, location-aware services on mobile devices. NAVTEQ Discover Cities is the latest product from NAVTEQ to address this demand by providing pedestrians with detailed local information enabling them to navigate efficiently on foot or via public transit systems. This enabling product provides the street, pedestrian and public transit network and relevant location content to bring a city to life on a mobile device.
NAVTEQ Discover Cities combines pedestrian thoroughfares like sidewalks, walkways, tunnels and bridges with time-sensitive public transit system information to enable true multi-modal routing. For the first time, urban travelers with enabled devices will be able to take full advantage of their surroundings by being able to get from place to place using the most time efficient and closest transit option.
NAVTEQ Discover Cities Features
- Pedestrian geometry and attributes important to pedestrian routing
- Public transit information including stop locations and timetables (in select regions)
- Neighborhood boundaries to enable local and proximity search
When used in combination with other location content from NAVTEQ, such as JiWire Wi Fi hotspots, branded travel guides, 3D Landmarks and 3D City Models, Discover Cities gives users a richer, more informed travel experience and assists their transition from one type of transit to another during a journey.
