Navteq Global LBS Challenge: Skobbler is the victor
4 Mar. 2009 | Author: The local search, ratings and navigation service Skobbler (see our report) has been awarded the top prize of the Navteq Global LBS Challenge for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA).
This competition took place for the fourth time in the EMEA region. The Challenge called for companies to develop innovative Location Based Services (LBS) applications for mobile devices. These applications are to be based on dynamic position-recognition and cartographic material by Navteq, a supplier of digital map material for vehicle navigation and location-based solutions.
This year, prizes to the tune of Euro 4-million were announced by Navteq and its co-sponsors on their website. The German startup Skobbler won Euro 472,000 as well as data licenses. Runners up included three other location-based service providers: City Guide – a LBS solution from Portuguese firm PH Informática SA, British C02-Emissions-Computing Carbon Diem, and the Hungarian 3D navigation software NaviGenie, owned by Kishonti Informatics Bt.
The selection criteria for the winners, according to Navteq, included commercial viability, functionality, ease of use and application design.
