@room4u Wahrscheinlich ist das auch wieder schlecht, HNH wird schon was finden, was daran wieder scheisse ist! ----- Gent, 18th September 2002 - Tele Atlas, the world`s leading digital map supplier, has been appointed to supply routing and navigation data to Hutchison 3G UK Limited (`Hutchison 3G`). Initially the system will be deployed in the UK and later made available in other European countries where Hutchison Whampoa has 3G interests. Under the terms of the agreement, Tele Atlas will provide mapping data for the UK and Europe supplying detailed street plans for over 30,000 cities from the largest seamless map of Europe in existence. The map data will be combined with routing and navigation information, including the infrastructure for roads and details such as one-way systems and points of interest from motorway services, post offices and railway stations to shopping centres and restaurants. This information will run alongside positioning software and will allow users to pinpoint their exact location and navigate to their chosen destination. Colin Tucker, managing director of Hutchison 3G said: "The quality of Tele Atlas` navigation data and the extent of its road and street network coverage will enhance the services we will be providing to our customers. Our goal is to be the first 3G operator in the UK and by collaborating with first-class partners, such as Tele Atlas, who have demonstrated a thorough understanding of the potential of third-generation services, we are well on-track to achieving this." According to Rolv Eide, Chief Operational Officer Tele Atlas "The race is on for those companies that have invested in UMTS licences for third-generation to provide value-added services, beyond simple voice telephony and bring them to market. Tele Atlas has focused its knowledge and resources to make new LBS concepts and services a reality. Our agreement with Hutchison 3G is a further testament to our ability to deliver across a variety of technologies and we look forward to playing a role in helping them to achieve their goals." ---- APL |
