Ecopia AI Partners with Snap Inc. Subsidiary to Pilot 3D Map Content Integration

TORONTO – Ecopia AI announced today that it was selected by a Snap Inc. subsidiary to provide high-precision vector mapping data.

Ecopia leverages advanced AI-based mapping systems to mine the most up-to-date commercially-available geospatial imagery, accessed through its global partner network, outputting high-precision vector maps. For this initiative, Ecopia turned to Airbus for access to their global premium 30-50cm high-resolution imagery database, which is serving as the input imagery for large-scale map content production.

“Ecopia has proven their ability to deliver highly-accurate mapping data at a large-scale with unparalleled speed,” said Snap, Inc subsidiary spokesperson.

“Ecopia’s mission is to digitize the world using AI, offering high-precision mapping data that can serve as digital infrastructure across industries,” said Jon Lipinski, Co-Founder and President at Ecopia. “We are very excited to see a world-leading technology company recognize and trust the quality and accuracy of our data for use in their next-generation applications.”
