Google Signs Five-Year Deal with Tele Atlas
June 30, 2008Google has signed a five-year licensing agreement with TomTom's Tele Atlas to provide maps and dynamic content covering more than 200 countries, but also gives Tele Atlas access to data provided by Google users.
The agreement spans Google's current and future map-based services and navigation offerings across mobile, online, and desktop environments, Tele Atlas said. These include the Google Maps and Google Earth services and mobile applications such as Google Maps for Mobile. The agreement also gives Tele Atlas access to edits for its maps from Google's community of users, according to Tele Atlas.
Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
Tele Atlas, acquired by TomTom earlier this month, also plans to receive feedback from TomTom navigation users via the company's Map Share program.
