Nokia, Mercedes-Benz to create maps for self-driving cars

CNET, Sep 10 2013 - The two are jointly developing smart 3D maps for connected cars and will expand that concept to autonomous automobiles, according to Nokia.

The mapping feature will be provided by Nokia's Here, a cloud-based service that offers drivers real-time traffic updates, road closures, and recommendations based on their location. Gearing up now for Internet-connected cars, Here will ultimately take on the challenge of directing self-driving cars. http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57602178-94/nokia-mercedes-benz-to-crea...
