Mapping is a critical enabling technology for future vehicle automation systems. The speaker will introduce the fundamental ideas that underlie location-based services, highlight some common tools & techniques that enable precise position determination, & then dive into a few of the custom, high-value map features that can be created based on a geospatial database service.

The talk will also include an overview of some of the open-source projects from HERE Technologies, including some that aid with Over the Air (OTA) updates.
