NAVTEQ would rather drive test and send expensive bodies out to verify. Example given: What if you looked at a map and it had a hotel listed 3 times. They dont get it and fear changing their old school ways. This cost structure is inneficiant as filters like PhotoEnforced.com get better for curating data. Nokia is the largest consumer based phone company yet the company has no intension of leveraging this footprint to capture data. Wow, this is a major management oversight and may soon be the demise of a Nokia and Navteq divorce. There just isnt any synergy or cross platform collaboration.
