December 09, 2009 -- AtlasCT is a regional sponsor of the NAVTEQ Global LBS Challenge® in Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA) and North America regions. As a regional sponsor AtlasCT offers its Mobile API for free for developers who wish to create a location based application for the competition. In addition, AtlasCT will be granting a 1-year free license to the Grand Prize Winners in the EMEA and North America regions for up to 9,000 monthly subscribers of the winning application using:

Atlas Mobile SDK, Atlas Web SDK, Atlas GIS, Atlas LBS

In the past few years AtlasCT itself has submitted several applications to the LBS Challenge, won the Social Networking category with "reLive" ( www.relive.abmaps.com), and was a semifinalist with other applications, including City Cruiser mobile navigation application, which is based on AtlasCT's Mobile SDK and Navigation API.

By integrating Atlas Mobile SDK into a mobile application, developers can very easily display interactive maps with layers of POIs, get access to high quality GIS services such as geo-coding, reverse-geo-coding and routing, and even use Navigation API for real-time, in 2D or 3D, with full turn-by-turn GPS navigation with vocal and visual directions.

Recently AtlasCT has launched a new developers’ zone, which provides more information about the company's products and services, and enables developers to get direct access to documentation, code examples, and detailed description of AtlasCT's services.
