Apple wants to completely rebuild Maps, ditch TomTom
BY BRANDON RUSSELL | MAY 29, 2015
While Apple’s immediate plans are to add transit directions to Maps, 9to5Mac says the company is actually working to completely rebuild the experience from the ground up. Apple is reportedly building its own in-house mapping database, enlisting a fleet of vans to collect data for a 3D Street View feature; these vans have been deployed in a lot of major cities, with the goal of providing Apple with enough data to eventually ditch its reliance on TomTom.
Let’s face it, when Apple Maps launched in 2012, it was an unmitigated disaster, and hasn’t fared much better over the past several years; it has made some improvements, sure,
but it’s nowhere near the quality of what you’d get from Google, or even Nokia HERE.
