What we do
We use location technology to improve how businesses and cities run – at a fraction of the energy and environmental costs.
We're heading into a new digital era. A proliferation of new technologies is creating a paradigm shift in how reality is digitized and interpreted, increasingly in high definition and real time. These technologies include live vehicle and device sensors, Lidar, expanded high-speed wireless connectivity (e.g. 5G) and the advancement of Cloud, AI, Robotics and IoT.
Advanced visualization, simulation and digital twins are opening up a variety of new use cases around logistics and manufacturing. In mobility and automotive, autonomous vehicle simulation is improving safety and reliability.
Location technology plays a foundational role in all of this.
Data silos and fragmentation can be major roadblocks for many organizations. But our platform enables businesses or organizations to unify, process, connect and monetize all location data with ease while preserving data ownership and privacy.
Whether you require a 2D map with complex routing solutions to guarantee on-time deliveries, an instruction set for a car or robot or 3D data models to plan a 5G network, the HERE platform can take you where you want to go with its open data ecosystem, data models, architecture and tooling.
Why do we do it
Our aspiration is to enable an autonomous world that benefits everyone.
We believe that a world enabled and enhanced by location technology will be safer, more efficient, cleaner and more liveable. That in this autonomous world, people will enjoy a new future of equitable, sustainable mobility. Cities and governments will improve infrastructures in cost-effective ways. And together, we will develop solutions to many of the biggest challenges facing humanity today.
