Mobile Maps SDK
As Europe's leading shared micro-mobility provider, Tier Mobility provides people with a range of shared, light electric vehicles, from e-scooters to e-bikes and e-mopeds. Not only has the company reinforced its position as a frequent mode of transport for many commuters and travelers in Europe and parts of the Middle East, but it is also helping cities reduce their dependence on cars and movement towards a zero-emission future.
Mapbox has provided helpful solutions in order to expand everyone’s access to sustainable, easily accessible and multimodal mobility solutions. Every city has their own guidelines regulating where various mobility vehicles can park and operate. A challenge that mobility companies face is accurately mapping these various zones in a way that is both informative for riders and easy to interact with.
With regulations becoming more complex, heavy zone data is easily loaded using Mapbox Mobile Maps SDK. This allows for all of Tier’s vehicle types and areas of location to be shown in the app in real time without dropped frames when panning around the map. Internally, Mapbox Maps are used to visualize trip data start points, trip traces, and end points to identify where and when trips start, stop, and navigate to.
With the help of Mapbox, starting a ride with Tier is easy and fun. Users can get started smoothly by finding the nearest e-scooter, e-moped, or e-bike using our maps in the app. As urbanization continues at a rapid pace, Tier is ready to meet the demands for more active mobility, and together with Mapbox, continued technological developments create a more intuitive operational experience for consumers, and further the energy efficiency of its products.
