Tmap Mobility is enhancing its participatory traffic platform by introducing a feature that allows drivers to share real-time road conditions.
On May 15, Tmap Mobility announced the launch of its real-time road information sharing feature, called 'social reporting.'
The 'social reporting' feature enables drivers to share road conditions they encounter while driving with other users in real-time. Users can instantly report various information, including accidents, road closures, construction, hazards, and speed cameras, through the 'Report' button on the driving screen.
To improve the accuracy and reliability of the information, Tmap Mobility has implemented a user-participation verification system. Drivers passing by the reported location can respond with options such as 'Yes,' 'No,' or 'Resolved' to verify the report. Additionally, users can acknowledge helpful reports by selecting 'Helpful.' Reports that do not receive updates for a certain period or are marked as resolved will be automatically closed to maintain current information.
Users can also track the impact of their reports. In the 'My' tab under 'Driving Report Management,' they can view the status, number of views, and reactions to their reports in real-time, enhancing user engagement.
Jeon Chang-geun, Chief Product Officer of Tmap Mobility, stated, "The importance of real-time information sharing among drivers is increasing in situations where unexpected accidents or sudden road closures cause inconvenience. Through social reporting, we aim to provide faster and more accurate road information and expand a trustworthy driving experience created with our users."
Meanwhile, Tmap Mobility is expanding its business focus on mobility data and AI-based services. In the first quarter of this year, the company reported a 4.3% increase in revenue compared to the same period last year, strengthening its competitiveness as a daily mobility platform.
