We have several partners to whom we supply data or who assist us with collecting data. If you need to contact us for a data license kindly contact Johann Groenewald
Tracks4Africa data is licensed to the following organisations:
Navteq
Tracks4Africa data is licensed to Navteq who on their part will create a premium navigation data set which includes Navteq as well as selected Tracks4Africa data.
Kartoza
Kartoza is helping Tracks4Africa put our data online in the form of the Listings maps and Live Map on this site. They are using TileMill, Mapnik, MapServer, MapProxy, PostGIS, pgRouting and GeoDjango to do it, along with some custom software. Kartoza is also assisting us to migrate our data management environment behind the scenes into an Open Source environment including PostGIS and QGIS.
