About
At Civil Maps, we believe that efficient, safe mobility can revolutionize the way we live and interact with the world around us. To reach this future, we provide autonomous vehicles with cognition, enabling them to crowdsource 3D maps and make better decisions for safe driving. Our first milestones include providing real-time, localization in six dimensions and producing augmented reality maps, to be used by AVs and humans. Our process of questioning established methods and our artificial intelligence expertise allow us to define the mobility solutions of the future.
Civil Maps' resources are augmented through its partnerships with the leading geospatial, governmental and academic institutions including U.S. Department of Energy, National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center, Verizon Innovation Program, University of California Berkeley and Stanford University.
