CORRECTION: ALK will use Navteq and Teleatlas for mapping data

pocketgpsworld.comI have been contacted by ALK today to put the record straight about the announcement made by Tele Atlas. Reading the Tele Atlas press release it appears that they were to become the mapping provider for CoPilot. We were unable to contact our PR contact in ALK as he is on his honeymoon sso we published the Tele Atlas Press Release with my own comments.

It transpires that ALK will be using both Navteq and Tele Atlas for map data in their products going forwards. This has occurred because certain un-named partners have reqested having Tele Atlas maps as opposed to Navteq. I have been reliably informed that Navteq will continue to provide map data for the UK, and it is unlikely that this will be switched to Tele Atlas.
