Points of Interest

The customer is one of the most innovative technology companies in the world. Being the leaders in navigation services, the customer had built their own maps and were successful in creating and enhancing their map data layers with respect to geometry features. However, with the changing dynamic nature of businesses, effective maintenance of these layers to ensure the accuracy of the Points of Interest (POI) / Areas of Interest (AOI) on the maps was becoming increasingly challenging for them. The customer was using a limited version of the POI data by third party vendors. However, with growth and leadership in this space, it became crucial and imperative for them to build their own data in order to retain and re-use it.
