Darren Koenig, Wireless Market Director for Tele Atlas, provided insights on how the market for personal navigation devices is set to exponentially explode and why we are perhaps at a tipping point. He explained how both the in-vehicle and personal navigation devices markets will benefit from wireless network infrastructure development and why certain market segments, of varying demographic composition, are likely to buy both types of devices, and why generational differences are not a hindrance to widespread market indulgence. Editor-in-chief Joe Francica conducted the interview on July 23, 2007. The interview is approximately 18 minutes long.

In this interview Directions Magazine Editor-in-chief, Joe Francica, speaks with Bob Skinner, Group Vice President of Trimble Mobile Solutions (TMS). TMS is a division of Trimble Navigation and is engaged in delivering solutions for the fleet management market.
Skinner briefly discussed the recent acquisition of @Road by Trimble and how that will be assimilated into the Trimble organization. In addition, Skinner provides some detail about the costs savings that customers like Coca Cola and others in the ready mix (concrete/cement delivery) and consumer product goods market incur by using a location-based fleet management solution. Skinner discusses some of the unique competitive advantages of how Trimble can monitor aspects of the delivery truck’s performance and how dispatchers can manage scheduling more effectively as routes are added. The podcast is 13 minutes (~ 4 Mb) and was recorded March 15, 2007.

I interviewed Brian Bullock, Intermap Technologies’ CEO and he discussed several issues of interest, particularly since there has been so much discussion on 3D data recently. He talked about how the auto industry is using 3D data in several applications…from driving better fuel efficiencies in trucks as well as in developing "map-directed" headlamps in some of the higher end vehicles. I think you’ll find his discussion interesting with regard to what Intermap is doing in the PND market as well. Listen to this 15 minute interivew that was recorded on December 20, 2006.
