The global digital map market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 14.3% during the forecast period. Digital mapping is the process of collecting and compiling different forms of data into a virtual image. The collated data is used to create digital maps that present a certain geographical area or features, such as rivers, roads, and notable landmarks that includes hospitals and airports. Digital mapping technology can also be used to calculate the distance between different places. The major factor driving the growth of the digital map market during the forecast is the increasing expenditure on the adoption of advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) coupled with the changing landscape of customer intelligence. Various software companies are focusing on developing technology integrated digital map solutions. For instance, in January 2020, Qatar Computing Research Institute (QCRI) and MIT invented a model that uses satellite imagery to tag road features in digital maps by using AI technology to improve GPS navigation. Additionally, the proliferation of customer channels is another factor anticipated to drive the adoption of digital map technologies and services which in turn will drive the growth of the market.
The growth of the market can also be attributed due to the increasing adoption of mobile computing devices. As smartphones are getting more technologically advanced which has pushed users to use mapping applications for navigation and driving assistance. Mapping applications used in combination with Geographic Information System (GIS) and GPS applications enables user to access geo-referenced data to search nearby restaurants, cinema halls, and other landmarks.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Global Digital Map Market
The COVID-19 pandemic had impacted the global digital map market to a great extent. As of May 2020, 212 countries had been impacted by the pandemic, and the governments of these countries had ordered nationwide lockdowns due to which people were forced to stay in their homes which impacted the industries including travel and transportation, which in turn impacted the digital maps market. Additionally, the operations of several industries were put to a halt such as automotive, buildings, and construction, among others, which has declined the use and demand of the digital maps market across the globe.
Segmental Outlook
The global digital map market is segmented based on type, component, application, and vertical. Based on the type, the market is sub-segmented into outdoor mapping and indoor mapping. Based on the components, the market is sub-segmented into solutions and services. Based on the application, the market is sub-segmented into real-time location data management, geocoding and geo-positioning, routing and navigation, asset tracking, and others. Further, based on the vertical, the market is sub-segmented into energy & utilities, automotive, oil & gas, building & construction, government, travel & transportation, and others.
Global Digital Map Market Share by Vertical, 2021 (%)
Travel & Transportation Segment is Expected to Hold Prominent Share in the Global Digital Map Market
Based on the vertical, the travel and transportation segment is expected to hold prominent share in the global digital map market. The factor driving the segmental growth is the increasing demand for improved applications such as location information, real-time update, and geo-mapping outputs. For instance, in June 2019, Google Maps launched three features in India which allow users to see bus travel times from live traffic across 10 of the largest cities in India as well as get live train status for Indian Railways trains and get mixed-mode commute suggestions combining auto-rickshaw and public transport. Moreover, the growing demand for digital mapping to track the shipment in the logistics industry is boosting the growth of the market. For instance, in March 2022, Google announced to launch of an integrated suite of mapping, routing, and analytics capabilities for last-mile delivery. It assists fleet operators from the initial eCommerce order to the final doorstep delivery.
Regional Outlook
The global digital map market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). The Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to grow during the forecast period due to the increasing demand for digital maps in the automobile industry in the region.
Global Digital Map Market Growth by Region, 2021-2028
North America Region s Expected to Hold Prominent Share in the Global Digital Map Market
North America region is expected to hold prominent share in the digital map market. The major factor driving the growth of the market in the region is the increasing technological advancements in digital maps solution. For instance, in August 2021, the National Integrated Drought Information System (NIDIS) launched two new interactive features on Drought.gov. These features make it easier for decision-makers and the public across the US to share timely, reliable drought information. Furthermore, the presence of key players across regions is also expected to drive market growth in the region during the forecast period.
Market Players Outlook
The major companies serving the global digital map market include Apple Inc., Google LLC, Here Technologies, MapQuest, Nearmap, among others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers & acquisitions, partnerships and collaborations, and geographical expansion, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in June 2021, Inpixon launched Inpixon Asset Tag to manage, transportable chambers, medical instruments, repair field machinery, confidential products, devices, automobiles, bots, and other elevated objects that require tracing.
