Nissan High Definition Road Map

With the debut of Nissan's latest iteration of driver-assist technology, ProPilot Assist 2.0, the first question in everyone's minds was where it could be used. With a need to present this information in an engaging, interactive way, the solution was obvious: a map. And not just a regular map - the very map that is used in the ProPilot Assist system with accuracy down to the centimeter.

Partnering with HD Map provider, Dynamic Map Platform (formerly Ushr), we created this map, displaying the data in a fully interactive way. It allows users to zoom in or out points of interest, pan across the country, as well as search specific location with autocomplete powered by Google.

The map uses OpenLayers and map tiles to display the map data. The base layer map comes from OpenStreetMap and the marked overlay is served by Dynamic Map Platform. Location lookup and functionality are done using Google's Places and Autocompletion services.
