DataArt Enhances Navmii Live Europe iPhone App
NEW YORK, April 22,2010 – DataArt, a high-end software development company with headquarters in New York and R&D centers in Eastern Europe, helped Navmii, a leading satellite navigation company in the UK, enhance the abilities of the Navmii GPS iPhone and iPod Touch applications. By integrating with digital map provider Automotive Navigation Data (AND), Navmii is now able to offer turn-by-turn driving directions in all European countries and has drastically reduced the price of the new Navmii Live Europe fully-functioning GPS navigation applications for iPhone and iPod Touch.
The integration of AND into existing Navmii mobile applications brings true GPS navigation to consumers for a fraction of the price of stand-alone GPS devices. Currently available in France, Spain, Germany and the Netherlands, at €3.99 per country, Navmii GPS Live will be rolled out to all continental European countries within months, with the U.S. soon to follow.
Navmii GPS Live is a fully-functioning suite of GPS Navigation applications for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Users can search for an address by city, street, house or postcode and be instantly routed there with voiced directions. Navmii also provides live search for local facilities with integrated Microsoft Bing search, and voice directions and menus in local languages.
“Outside of a GPS manufacturer, it’s very hard – and rare – to find the type of technical expertise in an outsourcing company that’s needed for this type of application,” said Peter Atalla, CEO of Navmii. “DataArt’s deep expertise in both navigation and LBS technologies made them a natural choice. We’ve consistently been impressed with the level of innovation and rapid delivery at DataArt.”
DataArt previously matched Navmii software with PosiMotion’s G-Fi mobile network / GPS router to develop the application. The application uses G-Fi’s satellite GPS for more accurate positioning than standard cellular or Bluetooth triangulation.
