Pedestrian-Friendly Tele Atlas Urban Maps to 120 Cities

Tele Atlas is now offering Tele Atlas Urban Maps, for pedestrians with
out-of-car content such as enhanced views of sidewalks and footpaths, 2D
representations of notable structures and building footprints that
better orient pedestrians in city centers.
Tele Atlas Urban Maps complements Tele Atlas
MultiNet digital map database to deliver the
complete street network, including non-drivable, pedestrian-only
thoroughfares and a selection of points of interest (POIs) that enhance
a user's ability to find their way through
busy urban centers and reach their destinations.

To enable a more
realistic display of city environments, Tele Atlas Urban Maps integrates
Tele Atlas(R) 2D City Maps, which show building
footprints, sidewalks, town blocks, parks and railway infrastructure
along with 2D Landmarks, which provide well-known visual waypoints for
enhanced recognition and orientation.

Tele Atlas Urban Maps are available for nearly 120 cities globally,
including key cities in Asia-Pacific, Europe and North America such as
Amsterdam, Beijing, Berlin, Boston, London, New York, Paris, San
Francisco, Shanghai, Singapore, Toronto and Washington DC. To further
enhance offerings for pedestrians, Tele Atlas'
customers and solution developers can incorporate additional Tele Atlas
products, including Tele Atlas(R) 3D City Maps,
Tele Atlas(R) 3D Landmarks and Tele Atlas(R)
CityGuide, as well as aerial imagery.

Tele Atlas also offers a prototype with new features for Urban Maps
including, enhanced pedestrian attribution and neighborhood definitions.
