✓
Answer
Mobile mapping is the process of automating, collecting, transmitting information and creating maps based on information in the mapping of a mobile vehicle.
The process of mobile mapping has been growing slowly over the last twenty years.
Over the last two to three years, some global companies have accelerated this process.
The mobile mapping system is highly modernized by combining technologies like online mapping system, navigation system, computer system, ground profile radar etc. with the installation of Hiterack Digital Mobile One.
The system has made it possible to prepare maps based on information obtained from surveys of vast terrains, skyscrapers, long roads, railways, traffic, national boundaries and international borders, electricity pylons, settlements, etc.
It can generate GISB and GPS information, digital maps, and terrain image.
