Navigation market leader, Telmap, has used its unique navigation technology and NAVTEQ’s superior global map data to bring a comprehensive mobile search, mapping and navigation solution to the iPhone. The goal? Mass adoption of mobile navigation.

The strength of NAVTEQ lies in its experience as the leading global provider of digital maps, driving a mobile world with more than 100 million users per day.

The Telmap solution relies on its openness and flexibility, enabling operators to provide an offering that can provide NAVTEQ’s global map coverage, with access to rich content, live traffic, turn-by-turn GPS navigation, both in-car and pedestrian modes, and more.

Because Telmap’s solution only requires a thin-client on the iPhone handset, all of the intensive calculations and map data can be stored server-side, meaning that the maps and information that are sent to the handset are up-to-date and the application is light, allowing simple and fast download to the iPhone
