How long has Tele Atlas been in the mapping business?
As a pioneering provider of digital map data and other geographic content, Tele Atlas has been in this business, and only this business, for more than 20 years. We made two major acquisitions in that time, first in 2000 with the acquisition of ETAK, itself an industry pioneer. In 2004, we acquired Geographic Data Technology (GDT), by far the leading provider of maps for enterprise and public-sector applications in North America. Today, we employ 1,800 dedicated professionals in offices in 27 countries. For more information on Tele Atlas’ history of growth and innovation, read our Milestones. Tele Atlas is a subsidiary of TomTom N.V. For more information, visit www.teleatlas.
