The two companies have agreed to collaborate on the technology and data services to provide innovative solutions and competitive offerings to the market. These solutions will largely be centered around the concepts of Open Data and Open Source, key catalysts for innovation and change.

“We are excited to partner with Mapzen to continue our efforts in liberating Location Data Services! At CartoDB, we believe the future of this industry will be created by friendly collaboration between companies, and this partnership with Mapzen is the first “next generation” alliance we will see in this space,” said Javier de la Torre, CEO of CartoDB.

The commercial offering starts with the Enterprise package, which includes a set of Location Data Services, such as custom vector basemaps, geocoding, and routing. This commercial offering extends beyond the existing Free Tier by including: custom limits and quotas, Service Level Agreements, service behind firewalls, and Enterprise support.

This partnership provides an exciting alternative to existing Location Data Services in the market, making state of the art technology and services accessible to all with affordable prices and reasonable terms. “Our goal is to give all users the ability to realize the full potential of Location Data Services,” said Javier de la Torre, CEO of CartoDB. “As we continue to integrate our product offerings with Mapzen, we’re thrilled to see what new location intelligence our users will unlock with our suite of geo and map technologies.”
