Jens Unger – HERE.com – Seoul 2020

Our first speaker spotlight for our Seoul Symposium is on Jens Unger. Jens has previously spoken at our Montreal and Paris editions, and we’re happy to have him join us once again!

Jens is a mathematician and computer science by heart and education. In his daily job as Director of Engineering in Transport & Logistics at HERE Technologies, he is a professional powerpointer with people skills. However, being in the field for Transportation for several years the topic left a mark and passion for this topic behind.

When not powerpointing, he is doing photography or looking into daily hacks for optimizing life such as home automation.

Mapping of Cities and Transit in 3D

We all love Maps. However, typically maps are still a flat representation of the world. We tried to show cities and their transit in the additional dimension. Is the world ready for it? Is it useful? Do we have enough data? So many questions and we don’t have all the answers. But we can show what we can do.
