NAVTEQ (NYSE: NVT), a leading global provider of digital maps for vehicle navigation and location-based solutions, has signed a VAR agreement with Dublin based Mapflow. Mapflow and NAVTEQ have already worked together on a number of projects in Austria, the UK, France and Portugal, but the recent VAR arrangement provides the opportunity to develop the relationship further.

" We strive to provide best in class solutions for our customers and utilising the equivalent standard of map data is core to this," explained Mapflow CEO, Richard Bryce. "Access to NAVTEQ's integrated street level map data for both the Republic and Northern Ireland, will help consolidate our position as the leading source of geographic content in the Irish market."

NAVTEQ recently announced the availability of a full and detailed digital map of the entire Republic of Ireland.
