Making GPS-usable road maps

[Mohamed Ellozy]

In today Globe there is a story, Mapping out the details, on how Tele-Atlas make their maps. This reminded me of a New Yorker story I read a couple of years ago on how Navteq make their maps: GETTING THERE -- The science of driving directions. Interesting to know how the tools we use (or think of using) are built!

Very cool. I actually know two people who work for them, too.
