Hexagon Geospatial Announces Partnership with HERE

NORCROSS, GA – Hexagon Geospatial and HERE have signed an agreement that will enable Hexagon Smart M.App® developers and end-users to access and benefit from a variety of map data and location platform services from HERE. Through this partnership, developers will be able to utilize HERE services to use with their Hexagon Smart M.Apps.

HERE, the Open Location Platform company, collects highly accurate road, building, park, and other location information in multiple countries. The quality of HERE’s data provides an ideal basemap for the Hexagon Smart M.App developers. Subscribers to the Hexagon Geospatial Developers’ Network will be able to access basemap data, as well as other HERE services such as geocoding, routing and transit information.

“The innovators creating Hexagon Smart M.Apps are changing the way we experience location information,” said Mladen Stojic, President of Hexagon Geospatial. “Our new partnership with HERE provides developers with a fast and easy way to connect their Smart M.App to HERE basemap data and platform services, wherever they are in the world.”

This partnership equips developers with a variety of the latest HERE services to plug into their Smart M.App. In addition to the basemap and imagery, they will be able to access geocoding, vehicle and pedestrian routing, traffic information, and basic transit search and coverage.

“We are pleased to provide Hexagon developers access to map data that is accurate, fresh and reliable, as well as location platform services that are trusted by leading enterprises around the world,” said Eric Fumat, VP Sales, Internet of Things at HERE. “With these location functionalities, Hexagon developers now have more ways of building location intelligence into their apps.”

The Hexagon Smart M.App has revolutionized the way we envision, experience and communicate geographic information. These targeted, information services combine fresh geospatial content and workflows to deliver an interactive experience that includes the map and an engaging dashboard of insightful analytics. Combined with HERE data, end users are given a completely new way to solve real world issues in a smart, fresh way.
