Reporting to our COO.
Before we hand over the wheel to self-driving cars, they need a rich understanding of the world they drive in. High Definition (HD) maps are essential to self-driving safety, providing prior knowledge of the 3D environment. DeepMap's mission is to accelerate safe autonomy by providing the world's best HD mapping and localization services.
We were founded in 2016 and today we are a growing team of experienced engineers and product visionaries. Collectively, we have built mapping technologies in use by tens of millions of people daily. We are partnering with companies around the world who are pushing the boundaries in autonomy, including Ford, Honda, and SAIC Motor.
