TomTom Selects Eco-Movement to Boost Drivers’ Real-Time EV Charging Information
19 Maggio 2021 - 07:30AM
Location technology specialist, TomTom (TOM2), today announced an
agreement with Eco-Movement, a leading platform for electric
vehicle (EV) charge point data in Europe. TomTom’s EV suite and
TomTom’s Maps APIs are now enhanced with Eco-Movement’s
high-quality real-time charging information, providing drivers and
EV fleet managers with accurate EV point of interest (POI)
information faster than ever before.
Drivers of vehicles equipped with TomTom’s EV
charging points service will enjoy numerous benefits, including
detailed user-friendly addresses; helpful information on opening
times and accessibility; charging speed; accepted charge cards and
subscriptions; as well as real-time charge point availability.
“Our deal with Eco-Movement will provide drivers
of electric vehicles powered by TomTom’s EV suite with a seamless
navigation experience. From optimized routes, to suitable,
available, working charging points, that match drivers’ needs –
TomTom is always simplifying and enhancing the driving experience,”
said Antoine Saucier, Managing Director, TomTom Automotive. “With
our growing number of easy-to-use EV navigation solutions, leading
global charging point coverage, and ultra-fast real-time
availability data, TomTom is driving the e-mobility push towards an
emission-free future.”
TomTom’s high-quality EV POIs will further
enhance the EV driving experience with TomTom’s location
technology. The latest TomTom EV Routing and Range technology uses
a broad catalogue of factors to plan the best routes, precisely
predict range and calculate a reliable estimated time of arrival
(ETA). These factors include current and maximum battery level;
driving speed; road type and gradient, as well as traffic and
charging point information.
EV POIs are made available to developers via
TomTom’s Maps APIs. The deal with Eco-Movement enriches the
solutions developers can propose to companies with EV fleets. Users
will be able to find all of TomTom’s EV POIs via the Search API.
While TomTom’s Extended Routing API, which provides Long Distance
EV Routing, take into account all the available charging
possibilities along the way.
“We are excited to team up with TomTom and give
even more drivers access to our invaluable charging station
information,” said Roderick van den Berg, CEO at Eco-Movement. “At
Eco-Movement, we envision a world where electric cars are the
standard, and charging is smooth and efficient. It’s our mission to
provide the best and most relevant charge point information for EV
drivers and the EV ecosystem.”
Drivers can also find available EV charging
points on the TomTom GO Navigation app (available for download via
Google Play, App Store and Huawei AppGallery), and on TomTom’s
newest and most powerful sat nav: the TomTom GO Discover.
