Third Dimension Technologies - a Lagos, London and New York based Geo - Informatics consulting company introduced an integrated suite of GPS mapping services for geographically navigating through roads and finding places of interest in Nigeria.
Nigeria is no more amongst the list of nations with a poor Geo Spatial data gathering and visualization record. This is brought about by the booming business of Vehicle Tracking, Facilities Management, In Car Navigation Systems and online Interactive Mapping. This is further enhanced with the launch of the two Nigerian Satellites which easily generate data for use within these applications.
SERVICES OFFERED
One of the forerunners - and indeed the only company in Africa who has implemented such a solution - recently launched their online mapping service. On the website, you can search for addresses, find information and location of services like restaurants, petrol station, banks, hotels etc. You can also do a "find my nearest search", this allows you to search services closer to your street address. Innovatively, they also have a nationwide route planning module, here you can plan your route nationwide before setting out on a journey, you will be able to print turn by turn directions, check total length of route and print these maps to guide on your journey. This is indeed innovative. You can also search for maps of any place nationwide, this is absolutely ground breaking.
OTHER PRODUCTS AVAILABLE
The company also distributes a GARMIN product called CEASER CITY NAVIGATOR, these are mapping software that is installable on GARMIN GPS devices, both voice prompted and non voice promted, you simply search and input your destination and then the device navigates you all the way to where you are travelling to. The navigator series can be purchased for N/S/W/E of Nigeria, or for the entire country or for individual cities.
This is a genuine effort by an indigenous company to make the use of spatial data known and encouraged in Nigeria, hence they are offering these services free for now, so next time, before you travel, log online, plan your route so that you wont waste precious time finding the route to your destination.
