Garmn To Use New Provider For Tmc

Posted on Sunday, 16 March 2008 08:07PM by Darren Griffin

iTIS, one of the two UK providers of RDS-TMC data services have announced a three year agreement with Garmin UK to supply data for their nüvi 2x5 range of TMC equipped navigation devices.

Garmin have previously used RAC-TrafficMaster as their chosen supplier of RDS-TMC data.

Stuart Marks, Chief Executive, ITIS Holdings said. "We are delighted to be selected by Garmin as a traffic provider and we will be working closely with them to build upon our combined leadership in traffic and navigation. ITIS real time traffic information will help Garmin’s customers avoid the jams and reach their destination quickly and stress free."

What is not clear from the announcement is whether this new deal will see Garmin UK migrate to iTIS for RDS-TMC data across every TMC equipped device or if this agreement covers new devices, or indeed if this is Garmin testing the water on the nüvi 2x5 range only.
