Navteq Transport, Point Addressing Available on Oracle Platform

Navigation solution provider Navteq announced today that its Transport application is now available for Oracle Database as well. Transport, a system used by trucks and other large vehicles, will be paired with Point Addressing, the second solution available with Oracle.

"Navteq and Oracle have been collaborating for many years. Navteq is the only provider of turn-key data solutions on the Oracle platform. We are pleased to now enable improved mapping, geocoding, and routing on the Oracle platform through the introduction of Navteq Transport and Point Addressing," Roy Kolstad, Navteq vice president said in a release.

"Navteq is excited to enable another set of strategic planning solutions for our customers across all enterprise verticals, including government, utilities, telecom and retail."

Point Addressing is a solution which helps truck drivers locate a specific location, by providing them with address points. On the other hand, Transport let's truck drivers know were and what are the restrictions, be it physical or legal, as well as informing them on where truck stops can be located.

A truck driver using Transport will know, ahead of time, what is the height of the upcoming overpass, as well as what roads have weight or other truck-related restrictions.

"Many Oracle applications depend on Navteq maps and content to meet our customer demands for high quality and accurate solutions," Steven Hagan Oracle development vice president added.

"This is another case where Oracle's spatial technologies and Navteq products and services combine to provide leading edge enterprise solutions with location content that enable greater efficiency and functionality."
