The GeoBase Navigation SDK is a rich tool box of mapping and dynamic routing functions for embedding navigation functionality in mobile software applications.
The Nav SDK includes a set of high-level tools that allow developers to quickly implement and customize navigation enabled applications. Complete control and overrides are provided for functions such as maneuver arrows, locations maps, instructions, compass, etc.
The Nav SDK leverages the GeoStream technology – a single application can support both device resident data and server driven navigation applications. This greatly expands the range of target devices while limiting the maintenance and support costs associated with multiple platforms.
GeoBase Compatibility Nav SDK is compatible with the rich set of GeoBase support tools.
- Chameleon allows you to tailor the map engine or appearance and performance.
- DataImport allows you to add custom layers to the base street data.
- StreetImport allows you to start from scratch with any navigation-quality data set.
File and Data Formats
- The GeoBase File Format is compact making it an efficient data storage mechanism. The entire US & Canada data set is less than 2 GB.
- Localization parameters are included in the data files making it easy to manage multiple regions.
- GeoBase can seamlessly skip across multiple data files, making deployment easier.
- The GeoBase Data Clipper allows you to create data files for specific regions, thus further reducing the footprint on the target device and providing more flexibility in map data pricing.
- Ancillary data sets like Truck Attributes, historical traffic are fully supported.
