"..And in addition to a great experience for drivers, the new TomTom integration may help with Uber’s efforts in the self-driving car space.

TU-Automotive, Novi, Michigan, USA- 8 June, 2016 – TomTom (TOM2) today announces coverage expansion of its High Definition (HD) Map and RoadDNA products to seventeen new states across the United States.

“With over 122,000 kilometres of HD Map coverage globally, we’re equipping our automotive customers with the data needed to continue to push autonomous driving forward,” said Willem Strijbosch, Head of Autonomous Driving at TomTom. “The importance of having a map in the vehicle for autonomous driving is now widely accepted; TomTom has responded to this need with an unprecedented ability to provide HD Maps today, while others are still in the R&D stage.”
TomTom’s HD Map and RoadDNA are now available in the following geographies:
Interstates in Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio,
