01/02/10 - Cyclops Eastern European Database - Released
Cyclops today announce the release of their Eastern European speed camera database. This database includes the first phase of coverage to include Poland, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Greece and Russia. This database includes over 3,500 fixed camera sites and mobile enforcement zones - all fully verified by the Cyclops field survey team.
Using the latest GPS survey equipment our teams have covered many thousands of miles across Eastern Europe to ensure all camera data is absolutely 100% fully verified. Our survey teams visit each site using GPS survey cameras to record a geo-coded location image, camera type, speed limit enforced, camera direction, road geometry and feeding back any other relevant data to ensure reliable alert sequences are delivered to the end user for each and every site.
Steve Wreford, Director of Cyclops, commented, "This is yet another milestone in the continuing expansion of our premium quality, professionally verified, dynamic speed camera database coverage. The reason our content continues to be selected by leading navigation brands is due to our absolute commitment to data integrity and the benefits of this attention to detail combined with our unique Waypoint Technology to deliver the most reliable, accurate and meaningful user experience.
With well over 65,000 fixed and mobiles sites now live within our live global database, drivers from Vancouver to Vladivostok and from Narvik down to Naples now are using Cyclops to keep an eye on the road ahead.
2010 is shaping up to be an exciting year with more new market coverage to come along with the roll out of some great new dynamic content services.
