"Here" to drive the map service, is through 3D, virtual technology will be the real world Panorama display, the goal is beyond Google. Nokia bought Earthmine last November, and the company promises to have a more high-resolution panoramic image than Google, and a more accurate 3D building identification system.      "Here" second-generation updated system uses newly developed camera, lidar and 3D Street Image company Earthmine newest processing technology. Nokia's 680,000 megapixel mobile mapping system should also make it difficult for the Google Maps team to sleep.      Nokia's driving map "Here" has been running in North America and Europe for some time, and the "Here" database can choose the city on the user's desktop or Windows Phone's app to watch 3D street photography. Its first generation system uses Earthmine's first generation mobile mapping system with four ultra wide-angle cameras.      Nokia's here second-generation version is the new revolution, its use of panoramic cameras increased by more than one resolution, using earthmine fisheye lenses, these four cameras can effectively record everything from the street to the sky, including the surrounding complete 360-degree space. Rather than a high-resolution lidar scanner, it uses the same technology as Google's own drive.      These two systems and a high-precision GPS sensor, mounted on the lower part of the gray-white frame extension camera bracket, mounted at the foot of the front passenger seat. There's also a removable hard drive that can store about 3 days of data. When necessary, you can take this hard drive out and mail it back to Earthmine.      "Here" has a customizable application controller, which is installed on the Microsoft Surface tablet. This controller not only manages the 3D camera system, but also directs driving, and then feeds real-time feedback to the Nokia server. This controller loads the scan location after work, guides the driver to the starting point, then shows which roads to go, and analyzes the best route to minimize duplication of data. This flat has a preview page showing the latest images of four cameras. At the same time, also record the driving angle, as well as the physical location of the car, Nokia can give the most fuel-efficient, or fastest route.      Nokia second generation driving system "here" is more ambitious, the original 3D map is limited to Europe and North America, now coverCover more places. In fact, Nokia "here" target 27 countries, this year in Africa, South America, Asia, North America, Europe, the number of effective 3D Street database is three times times the previous.      "Here" the second generation is not a small investment, however, Nokia is confident that "here" advantage will soon overtake Google's Street View map. Nokia also said, "We are really not as good as Google Maps, but we can catch up very quickly." "
