said Linux Foundation executive director Jim Zemlin.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Industry needs to come together to do this for the benefit of all.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Google was notably absent from the list of companies teaming up in Overture, which said its goal is to expand membership to speed up progress.<\/p>\n<p>The coalition expected to release its first mapping datasets by the middle of next year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Immersive experiences, which understand and blend into your physical environment, are critical to the embodied internet of the future,&#8221; Maps at Meta engineering director Jan Erik Solem said in the release.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;By delivering interoperable open map data, Overture provides the foundation for an open metaverse built by creators, developers, and businesses alike.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Map data already underlies applications for search, navigation, logistics, <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>s, autonomous driving and more, according to the Linux Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>Overture map data will be open source, meaning developers are free to not only use it but to build on it, the Linux Foundation said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-main__note mt-4\">\n                                                \u00a9 2022 AFP<\/p>\n<p>                                        <!-- print only --><\/p>\n<div class=\"d-none d-print-block\">\n<p>                                                <strong>Citation<\/strong>:<br \/>\n                                                Google rivals join forces in online maps (2022, December 16)<br \/>\n                                                retrieved 16 December 2022<br \/>\n                                                from https:\/\/techxplore.com\/<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>\/2022-12-google-rivals-online.html<\/p>\n<p>                                            This document is subject to copyright.
