Trek Wireless has partnered with MiO Technology a global leader in navigation devices to make available geotagged images of public electric car charging points (Juice Points) in Westminster, London.

Once the images are downloaded the driver simply selects the image of the Juice Point they need to find and the MiO satnav unit provides driving directions to the location embedded in the picture. This approach provides a visual reference, saves time and removes the need to enter street names or post codes. Using a combination o geotagged images and our virtual tour technology, Trek Wireless has also create an interactive map based on Microsoft’s bing maps platform making it easy to visualise and find charging point locations in London. Ensuring that charging points can be easily located will be essential in order to support the growing interest in electric vehicles and the demand for infrastructure to support them.
