Customers of HERE include nearly every global automaker, leaders in e-commerce, transportation and logistics and enterprises worldwide. HERE is the global market leader for automotive-grade maps designed to power navigation, advanced driving assistance, EV and automated driving systems. HERE captures and maintains a highly precise, digital representation of the world’s road network at scale with the latest AI applications and combining multiple data sources, including vehicle sensor data, satellite and aerial imagery, probe data and street-level data collection. “Our experience operating a global mapping fleet has given us unique insights into what truly matters for data collection at scale. The Horus systems deliver what we need to support our technology and customer requirements. The low power consumption and ease of operation are particularly important for our worldwide operations.” [https://www.here.com](https://www.here.com) [Danilo Kulaif](https://www.here.com) [Director of Spatial Data Analytics & Engineering, HERE Technologies](https://www.here.com) To maintain the accuracy, freshness and coverage of its global map, HERE continuously evolves the technologies used across its data collection ecosystem. Mobile mapping systems play a role within this broader approach, enabling the capture of detailed street-level imagery and sensor data in environments where other data sources alone may not provide sufficient coverage or fidelity. Challenge ### HERE required a mobile mapping system that could: 01 Incorporate modern sensor, computing and power-management technologies 02 Support real-time and edge-based data processing 03 Deliver reliability and durability for global fleet operations 04 Complement other data sources within HERE’s multi-source mapping ecosystem 05 Integrate smoothly with HERE’s existing tools, workflows, and proprietary data formats Solution Based on its technical and operational requirements, HERE selected Horus View and Explore B.V. as a mobile mapping technology supplier to support its street level data collection activities. Horus provided a fifth-generation mobile mapping system deployed within HERE’s global fleet as HERE True 5 (HT5). The system combines a modular hardware architecture with an integrated software stack designed to support continuous data collection at scale as part of HERE’s broader mapping strategy. ## Key system capabilities include: #### Real-time, on-board data processing while driving #### Edge mapping to prepare data directly in HERE’s proprietary formats #### Low energy consumption to support extended operations #### Compact, modular design to simplify deployment and maintenance #### Enterprise-grade durability suitable for worldwide field use Implementation #### Working from HERE’s specifications, Horus supplied a system configuration incorporating selected cameras, lidar, GNSS and computing modules optimized for: To maintain the accuracy, freshness and coverage of its global map, HERE continuously evolves the technologies used across its data collection ecosystem. - Performance and reliability in global operations - Long-term component availability - Compatibility across multiple vehicle types - Intelligent power management and energy efficiency Mobile mapping systems play a role within this broader approach, enabling the capture of detailed street-level imagery and sensor data in environments where other data sources alone may not provide sufficient coverage or fidelity. ## With Horus technology supporting its mobile mapping operations, HERE has achieved: Production-ready global deployment of a unified mobile mapping system Improved operational efficiency through lower energy consumption Faster data processing cycles enabled by edge-based preparation Flexibility to incorporate evolving sensor and computing technologies Reduced total cost of ownership across worldwide fleet operations Our projects ### More projects Behind every project is a team that needed mapping to work for their specific situation. These stories show how we worked with them, from the first question to a system running in the field. See what became possible when the right people, technology and use case came together.
