Is there offline map material for NUNAV Navigation?

Currently, NUNAV Navigation does not offer the option to download and store map data on the device. The navigation processes traffic data in real-time to provide each user of our Collaborative Routing with the fastest route individually.

To ensure you always have the most up-to-date map data, NUNAV Navigation does not use offline maps but instead adapts the map data used to your user behavior. The map data is updated at regular intervals (approximately every 14 days). We process data from OSM for map creation and routing.

Currently, NUNAV Navigation uses a so-called "environment caching." This means that only the environmental data of your last destinations is stored. Once the maximum capacity of 200 MB is exceeded, the environmental data of the "least visited destinations" is released for the environmental data of new destinations. This way, you only load the map material you really need and can always navigate with the current map.

Due to this "environment caching," data consumption is naturally significantly lower for shorter or recurring routes (such as your commute) than if you drive from Hamburg to Munich today and from Munich to Berlin tomorrow. On these routes, NUNAV will naturally load more real-time data as more map material is needed.

However, complete offline use will not be possible, as this would contradict our approach to connected driving. More on the topic of "Collaborative Routing" and AI-based swarm intelligence can be found here.
