Ovi Maps Q&A Later Today – Get Your Questions In

By - Vaibhav Sharma On 13 October 2009 7 Comments

Last Wednesday I told you about DigitalGlobe’s WorldView-2 satellite launch that will bring high-resolution satellite and aerial imagery to Ovi Maps in order to improve the global driving, hiking and walking navigation capabilities. Today, I’m glad to say that I have been invited to a Q&A about the launch and what it will mean for Ovi Maps.

Nokia Satellite

I am also glad to say that we will be joined by the CEO of Digital Globe to talk about how the satellite will improve the Ovi Maps offering and also by representatives from the Ovi Maps team. I already have a few questions in my mind, but if there is something you want to know, please leave it in the comments section and I will try and get an answer for you.

I would doubt that since that depends on the chip inside the phone and has little to do with the current satellite in question.

My question is simple:

Why doesn’t Ovi Maps work as well as Google Maps? Ovi maps simply does NOT find anything I type in, while I can always rely on Google Maps to give me quick, accurate searches. Nokia will have a hard time marketing this application to developed nations if they can’t even get simple searches right.
