Baseline Data Sources

The majority of data in the MultiNet^® product is taken from the TomTom^® core internal database. TomTom^® continuously builds and updates this core streets and addresses database through a constant blending of geographic data from many verified sources. Many of the data feeds are from official government sources (ministries, state governments, provincial authorities, local authorities, statistical offices and agencies). TomTom^® relies on relationships with thousands of resource providers, strategic development partnerships and data enhancement feedback loops for baseline data sources. These ongoing relationships have developed into an effective mechanism to gather local information such as a new subdivision or a change in a street name. TomTom^® also partners with many customers, including delivery companies and utilities, to identify new neighborhoods and confirm addresses.
