Navmii is the developer of GPS navigation applications and location technologies. Headquartered in London United Kingdom, with offices in San Francisco and St Petersburg, Russia .
Launched in September 2010, claimng to be the very first free navigation app on iPhone. It uses OpenStreetMap (OSM) map data (www.openstreetmap.org) which uses crowd-sourced map data, and is constantly being improved by the global community of over 850,000 contributors. In many areas OSM rivals commercial map data, in other areas the map data still has to grow, but as the OSM and Navmii community grows so does the quality of the data. All of this is good news but it some what limits the opportunity for resellers and distributors.
