TomTom Launches Lane-Level Orbis Maps and ADAS SDK to Accelerate Driver Assistance

The tools target regulatory compliance to enable lower-cost scaling for automakers.

Overview

  • Orbis Lane Model Maps debuts with lane geometry, connectivity and markings, initially available across Germany with broader rollouts planned.
  • TomTom cites an AI-powered map factory that delivers lane-accurate coverage at urban scale with continuous updates at lower cost than traditional HD maps.
  • The new ADAS SDK is a modular, standalone gateway to Orbis data that aims to cut development and integration time for L2+ features across platforms and regions.
  • The toolkit generates a predictive path enriched with speed limits, curvature, gradient, lane connectivity and traffic signs, enabling adaptive lighting, hazard alerts and precise lane-keeping via a Most Probable Path horizon.
  • TomTom positions the SDK to support Intelligent Speed Assistance and Euro NCAP requirements and to optimize EV powertrains using gradients and statistical speed profiles.
