Q&A About OpenLR with Ralf Peter Schaefer, TomTom
GPS Business News: What is Open LR?
Ralf Peter Schaefer: OpenLR is a dynamic location referencing to identify locations describing and exchanging events like traffic jams, incidents, weather reports, POIs between a source map and destination map.
...
OpenLR is map-agnostic which allows the use of different vendor maps for the encoding and decoding part of event locations.
...
OpenLR is using location coding algorithms on pure map features and the road geometry. It can address the entire road network. Once it has been implemented with an encoder on the sending map and a decoder with the receiving map e.g with a navigation system, it works without further maintenance. To our knowledge and experience the time to market is not longer than a couple of weeks.
The bandwidth consumption per location is up to 3 times lower than competing on-the-fly location referencing systems.
GPS BN: Who is using it today ?
RPS: After the successful commercial implementation in all TomTom navigation products as of 2009 more users have implemented OpenLR. Applications in all market sectors such as Automotive, Enterprise or Government and various traffic suppliers have successfully implemented the method. During the OpenLR conference best practices to implement and use will be discussed.
GPS BN: Did Open LR receive a seal of approval from any international standardisation body such as TISA, or others?
RPS: In 2012 OpenLR became an official TISA standard. OpenLR is part of the location reference container of the TPEG TISA standard. Furthermore, OpenLR has been standardized as part of the Datex-2 standard for content exchange.
