Maps
Highly accurate maps, available worldwide
Introduction
The value of mapping
People have become highly dependent on maps for precise orientation, reliable navigation and visualizing data. Maps need to be as accurate as possible for these reasons, but keeping up with second-by-second changes in the real world can be a challenge.
HERE provides fresh, high-quality, professionally-designed maps in over 196 countries, in multiple languages. They are available in a variety of map styles and rendering technologies.
Technical Information
A richer experience
In the context of software-as-a-service, maps are typically pre-rendered tiles or images used for different zoom levels, display options, views and schemes. The Maps component of HERE Location Services is specifically designed to allow for the addition of polygons, labels and other objects without overloading the user, in turn delivering a richer experience.
In addition, Maps provides high-resolution panoramic street-level views of tourist attractions, historic locations, commercial centers and more. HERE Venue Maps takes things further by bringing the mapping experience indoors, helping people navigate airports, shopping malls, museums, universities and more.
