The 2010 NAVTEQ Global LBS Challenge has announced five winners for the North America competition and 12 finalists for the India region. The Challenge is a worldwide competition for developers building innovative location-based services (LBS) using dynamic positioning technology and NAVTEQ maps.
The North American winner is Cypress Solutions of Vancouver, Canada; its VUE application tracks tugboats, barges and log booms for marine fleets. The first runner-up is ZOS Communications, whose zhiing application creates a universal in-box for location communications and interaction. Second runner-up is Spriv, whose application prevents the fraudulent use of stolen credit cards and user/password information. Also, two special-recognition awards were given to 3D Arts, publisher of Hile Arcade; and Cell Storm, publisher of Cell Storm Real Estate.
For the India region, 12 applications have been selected to advance to final judging. These include location-aware applications with the latest features in fitness and tracking services, enterprise solutions, location-based advertising and mobile couponing, social networking, navigation, search and news services. Among the 12 finalists are Ariose Software, maker of Hobby Lobby; Genesys International Corp., developer of GenesysGolf; and Ninad Majumder, developer of LooLoca. The winners of the India region competition will be announced on 29 April.
NAVTEQ Global LBS Challenge winners in two additional regions will be announced soon: South America on 22-27 May; and Asia/Pacific on 14 June.
