We’ll explore the benefits of open-source technology, based on our experience of open-sourcing a layer of our proprietary places dataset and geospatial tools like Kepler.gl. We’ll share lessons learned and demonstrate how building and maintaining an accurate global Points of Interest (POI) database is a mission critical layer to advanced Spatial Computing. This is critical for technologies like autonomous vehicles, augmented reality, and mapping systems that require precise, context-aware location data for seamless user experiences.
