NAVTEQ to Showcase Leading Map-Enhanced Traffic Solutions at ITS World Congress

Demonstrations will feature NAVTEQ Traffic(TM) and Community-Enhanced Traffic
GPS data, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), Vehicle Infrastructure
Integration (VII)

NEW YORK, Oct. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- NAVTEQ, a leading global provider of
digital map data for location-based solutions and vehicle navigation, will
showcase its latest advancements in NAVTEQ Traffic, ADAS and VII at the
upcoming 2008 ITS World Congress in New York, November 16-20th (Booth 401 at
the Javits Convention Center). As a founding member of ITS and a premiere
exhibitor at this year's show, NAVTEQ continues to demonstrate its long-
standing commitment to innovations in the traffic industry.
NAVTEQ, in conjunction with Nokia, features the U.S. Department of
Transportation's SafeTrip-21 program-an initiative expected to significantly
advance the state of traffic data collection and traffic information quality.
In partnership with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans),
UC-Berkeley's Civil and Environmental Engineering Department and the
California Center for Innovative Transportation (CCIT), the SafeTrip-21
project utilizes Nokia's proprietary Trip Line(TM) technology, a series of GPS
points that monitor real-time traffic conditions as they relate to the mobile
device's position on roadways, while preserving privacy. NAVTEQ processes the
GPS data from Nokia combining it with additional NAVTEQ-collected traffic
information to deliver complete and accurate travel time predictions to users.
With this technology in place, NAVTEQ and the program's participants can
better leverage community-enhanced traffic data to revolutionize the
industry's data collection methods for mobile traffic information.
This year, NAVTEQ traffic exhibits will feature:
Nokia Community-Enhanced Traffic
-- Community Enhanced Traffic featuring Nokia mobile device data
utilizing its proprietary Trip Line(TM) technology
-- Proprietary privacy technology Privacy by Design(TM) protects
consumers and allows Nokia to collect, store and transmit only the minimum
information necessary for GPS data purposes
SafeTrip-21
-- Advanced mobility and spatial awareness applications developed in
conjunction with UC-Berkeley's Partnership for Advanced Transit and Highways
(PATH) and Caltrans

In addition to traffic technologies, NAVTEQ also will showcase:

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)
-- Demonstrations featuring NAVTEQ's market-leading approach to
accelerate development of map-enhanced ADAS, in virtually all vehicles
-- Unique Map and Positioning Engine (MPE) Reference Solution which
features a compact version of the map and ADAS-only attributes --
NAVTEQMPE(TM) map, NAVTEQ Electronic Horizon and recommended MPE specification
to advance applications that reside on a small circuit board or are
distributed in the electronics architecture of the vehicle, providing an
application that is always on and does not need a stored navigation route
-- Vehicle navigation systems, featuring the complete, rich, detailed
version of the NAVTEQ map
Vehicle Infrastructure Integration (VII)
-- Demonstration showcases NAVTEQ's innovative approach to Vehicle
Infrastructure Integration (VII), which is fostering the deployment of
advanced vehicle-vehicle and vehicle-infrastructure communications that aim to
enhance highway efficiency and safety by reducing vehicle accidents.
