Inrix and Here collaborate to develop automotive services

163 Inrix is to utilise map content from 7643 Here Technologies in more than 50 countries to increase its coverage of connected services in the automotive industry.

Inrix collects anonymous data on connected vehicles and cities, road weather conditions, parking, mobile and other Internet of Things devices.

It then provides driving and mobility intelligence for automakers, transportation agencies and enterprises.

The partnership will also explore the possibility of combining resources to develop data services to improve mobility.

Last month, Inrix released a platform to help cities and road authorities communicate with operators for the safe deployment of highly automated vehicles on public roads.

In October, Here launched a cloud management service to help make it easier for developers and map makers to manage location data.
