Every day, new roads are opened while others are closed, four-way intersections are converted to roundabouts and addresses are updated. In fact, it’s estimated that 10% of the global road network changes every year. So, how do you make sure that those changes are reflected on maps and they happen quickly?
TomTom partners with companies in logistics and on-demand industries to share the map editing process to ensure our maps mirror real-road conditions. Our Map Editing Partnership (MEP) program is a mutually beneficial collaboration with strategic partners that leads to an even better map for users everywhere. Through MEP, leading industry partners are adding new roads, turn restrictions, street closures and more, ensuring fresh, accurate location information.

The MEP program is creating a partner ecosystem to strengthen relationships and improve service levels. By collaborating to make a better map, we also discover new products or services that we can offer to users. It’s a paradigm shift in which everyone wins.
The MEP program brings together the power of our global map-making community with best-in-class tools and technologies. Through the program, TomTom has partnered with global leaders in the mobility, on-demand, logistics and automotive industries. These partnerships enrich the TomTom mapping ecosystem by adding experience, on-the-ground insights and data from around the globe.
