How self-driving cars will be the mapmakers of our future cities

 

Here Maps has a plan to make itself a resource in the new age of autonomous vehicles.

 

--- “As the vehicles trundle around cities and up and down motorways, they will gather data not just about traffic, but about everything they encounter en route. Collectively, they will form an intelligent swarm, talking to each other for the purposes of navigation, but also reporting back to a central hub to help build up a picture of what's happening.”
