HERE Technologies and Amazon Web Services (AWS) have entered a cloud infrastructure agreement aimed at advancing the development of software-defined vehicles (SDVs). This partnership combines HERE’s mapping solutions with AWS technologies to accelerate the creation of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), automated driving (AD) and new digital car experiences.
<p>The collaboration leverages HERE’s expertise in location technology and AWS’s cloud capabilities to address the growing importance of live mapping in modern vehicles. These data-intensive operations can now be supported and scaled more efficiently using AWS, potentially reducing development times and accelerating innovation in the automotive industry.</p> <p>HERE has been utilizing AWS for its core cloud infrastructure, data platform and AI/ML model deployment for nearly a decade. This expanded collaboration allows HERE to offer automakers a comprehensive set of cloud-native tools and technologies, enhancing various aspects of vehicle functionality, from improved active safety features to optimized infotainment systems. </p> <p><strong>Key developments </strong></p> <p>A key development from this partnership is SceneXtract, a solution that streamlines the process of creating simulation-ready scenes for testing ADAS and AD systems. By combining HERE HD Live Map data with AWS’s natural language processing and generative AI services, automotive developers can more efficiently prepare simulations, potentially accelerating the development and deployment of advanced driving technologies.</p> <p>Beyond the automotive sector, HERE and AWS are collaborating on transportation and logistics solutions. These new offerings, built on AWS infrastructure, aim to help enterprise customers optimize fulfillment, improve supply chain visibility, and support sustainability goals. </p> <p></p> <p><p>The post <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.gpsworld.com/here-and-aws-advance-ai-mapping-for-software-defined-vehicles/">HERE and AWS advance AI mapping for software-defined vehicles</a> first appeared on <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.gpsworld.com">GPS World</a>.</p></p>
