Landis Media Ltd - is the established leader in the UK for creating and distributing POI data. With our flagship consumer business websites tomtomfree, Garminfree and HGVSOLUTIONS. Using this specialist knowledge you may be interested to find out that we also supply many of the FTSE 250 companies with POI data (Point Of Interest data sets). These are data packs which will show locations when loaded into a sat-nav, google earth, Autoroute or similar.
Typically a business will want to have its geo-assets located and then be able to use them with telematics, sat-nav and other applications -including geo-fencing, RFID tagging, geo-location, geo-sizing and geo-delivery. A typical solution from us for the retail sector would involve - us being supplied all of the location data for each building, office or shop (in .CSV flat table format).
This data is then taken and meticulously geocoded (turned from POSTCODES into GEO-CORDINATES or LOCATIONS e.g. WGS84 lat/lon). This data is then fully error checked and any anomalous error levels eliminated. If even greater precision is required we also offer a full verifications service (this involves absolute verification of a location by a human agent).

This geo-asset once created by us would then serve the business and be put to a number of uses by the organisation. Once the data exists and is created, it takes very little effort to incrementally update it - to keep things current.
The data will often be turned into packs for use with all the major satnav brands, tomtom, Navman, Garmin etc. This can be for use internally (e.g. van deliveries) and externally (customers using data to locate stores). We can supply all of the major data providers with copies of the data and are able to support your business in using and maximising the benefits of this new area.
