Hivemapper builds a street-level map by aggregating imagery from a decentralized network of everyday drivers and fleets. Contributors earn HONEY rewards for submitting high-quality data, which is processed to extract map features. The network has mapped more than 100 million total kilometers across over 90 countries, including more than 6 million unique roads. Based in San Francisco, the company serves businesses and developers that require up-to-date geospatial data and street-level imagery, selling access via API credits. A notable recent development is a collaboration with Volkswagen's autonomous-vehicle division to use Bee Maps for driverless testing, signaling real-world uptake of its decentralized mapping approach.
