GeoTechnologies provides real-time insights through geospatial data analysis.

Since our founding in 1994, we have consistently produced digital maps for about 30 years. From maps for car navigation systems to web-based maps, enterprise solutions, and essential maps for advanced autonomous driving (such as HD Map and SD Map+), we offer an extensive variety of resources. However, a common truth is that maps become outdated from the moment they are created. Buildings and stores are constructed or demolished, roads and routes are opened, traffic signs installed, removed, or relocated—our desire is to quickly reflect these vast daily changes in the real world onto our digital maps with swiftness and precision.

Our world never stops, and our lives are in constant common motion. We believe maps are living entities that must always be up to date and reliable. It used to be sufficient to view maps and geography in a two-dimensional perspective, but it has become necessary to represent the elevations of the ground and depicting man-made structures such as buildings, observatory towers, and bridges. Today, this concept has evolved into a three-dimensional understanding of geospatial data.

In addition to our long-developed asset of digital geospatial data, we also have the benefit of touchpoints with application users, exemplified by the TRIMA app. By combining precise latitude and longitude data with human movement, we can capture the real-time state of the world. We believe that by advancing these analyses, we can digitally recreate the real world: a concept we refer to as “real-time insights.”

We will continue to contribute to the realization of a more comfortable and sustainable society through the analysis and provision of geospatial “real-time insights”.
