Trimble, Qualcomm partner on mapping
Trimble RTX GNSS technology is now available for Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Snapdragon 888 Mobile Platforms. The integration of Trimble RTX GNSS technology, a correction services platform, with Snapdragon contributes to a higher quality, more accurate location-based user experience. Coupling the Trimble RTX technology with premium Snapdragon Mobile Platforms improves Android phones’ positioning capabilities with meter-level accuracy when used with a Trimble RTX-based correction service.
Location information accuracy can significantly improve the smartphone’s user experience when using mapping, driving, or other mobile applications, according to Trimble. In addition, lane-level accuracy enables drivers to gain greater map detail and more accurate directions when using real-time navigation applications.
This new collaboration expands Trimble’s existing relationship with Qualcomm Technologies to provide high-accuracy positioning solutions for connected vehicles, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), and autonomous driving solutions to automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers.
