  TomTom Rolls Out Map Sharing Software

By Branko Miletic | Wednesday | 11/06/2008

As roads are changing by as much as 15 per cent every year, TomTom has introduced Map Share in Australia, which allows users to easily improve their maps as soon as they spot changes in the roads with a few touches on the screen of their device.

Via TomTom HOME, TomTom's free software portal, Map Share users can also receive map improvements made by others, making their maps as dynamic as the world they live in.

TomTom GPS users can respond in real time to changes in the road network and correct the maps on their TomTom devices accordingly. Thanks to the smart user interface, it is easy to make improvements, such as blocking or unblocking streets, reversing one way traffic, adding new street names or editing or adding missing points of interest, all to instant effect.

TomTom Map Share gives users the option to capture all these changes on their device in-between map releases and keep their data as current as they wish. This feature will allow the community of TomTom Map Share users to always have the most up-to-date maps and local knowledge at their fingertips.
