Another Profile: Navteq in New York

Stories about the digital mapping data companies keep coming in; the latest is a CNNMoney.com profile of Navteq in which the streets being profiled are New York’s. It’s from last month, but GPS Review spotted it today.

I’m noticing a formula: profile one company (but not the other); mention one of its clients (but not the rest); feature one city where its surveying is taking place. In this case: Navteq (not TeleAtlas), Mapquest (not Google), New York. I should check the previous stories and see if they do the same thing.
