數位地圖市場：2023

The global digital map market size reached US$ 4.7 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 10.1 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 14% during 2023-2028.

A digital map refers to a web-based software solution that is used to represent a specific road, area or geographical location. It is virtually created by collecting data and formatting it into an image through digital formatting that is presented on a digital interface. It consists of various graphical elements that are combined to provide information of waterbodies, roads and important landmarks in a given area. It is also used for calculating distances between different places. Digital maps offer various benefits, such as scalability, accuracy, real-time information, interaction and compact systems to operate. Owing to this, they find extensive applications in smart parking, location, traffic and congestion intelligence, navigation and logistics management.

Rapid urbanization and the increasing adoption of mobile computing devices for navigation are among the key factors driving the growth of the market. There is a rising demand for 3D platforms and advanced technologies that use visualization, simulations and dynamic location-based inputs. Furthermore, the increasing utilization of digital maps in the construction and engineering sectors is also providing a boost to the market growth. Construction engineers visualize territorial data for efficient infrastructural planning and implementing adequate safety measures in buildings. Additionally, various technological advancements, such as the advent of cloud technology and big data in digital mapping solutions to process large amounts of geospatial information, are acting as another growth-inducing factor. The adoption of real-time digital maps in passenger and commercial vehicles, along with the development of user-friendly platforms, are some of the other factors that are expected to drive the market further.
