Good Morning All,

I saw this in the ‘paper’ this morning.

http://www.sunjournal.com/it-doesnt-have-to-be-a-self-driving-car-to-have-self-driving-features/

 

I couldn’t help but wonder what our role is in mapping the environment that these vehicles operate in. We often talk about “authoritative data” yet we see people following their GPS maps down some very iffy roads.

 

Where will the nexus be between global corporate mapping and state and local mapping of our transportation infrastructure.

 

The first one with the ‘right’ answer gets a cookie!

 

Have a great day!

Joe
