Cubic Trials Azure Global Location-Based Services

Cubic Telecom, the leading global connected software provider to the automotive and IoT industries, today, at AutoMobility LA™, announced it will use Microsoft Azure Location Based Services to deliver location capabilties to automakers worldwide. Cubic Telecom will demonstrate its Automotive Wi-Fi hotspot data solution during AutoMobility LA in the Microsoft Booth #138 in the Technology Pavilion.

Cubic Telecom will demonstrate how its data analytics solution powered by Azure Location Based Services will help city planners, automotive OEMs and third parties to more effectively manage Electrical Vehicle (EV) charging station locations, occupancy rates and overall efficiency of the infrastructure.

The demonstration is just one example of the types of solutions being developed by Cubic. Over time, the Cubic Telecom data warehouse will be enriched with additional datasets and an array of APIs, providing city planners, OEMs and developers with near real-time data access for their own proprietary applications.

“Cubic Telecom is committed to the Microsoft Azure platform companywide for the long term,” said Barry Napier, Chairman and CEO of Cubic Telecom. “Azure  is a truly global infrastructure that is flexible, scalable and developer-friendly and it has helped us to better serve our customers. Our collaboration with Microsoft opens up tremendous opportunities for our business, and we are committed to continuous development of solutions using the Microsoft Azure platform.”

Chris Pendleton, Principal Program Manager, Microsoft Azure IoT at Microsoft Corp. added,  “Cubic Telecom’s rich collection of location-based data on Microsoft Azure provides the opportunity to consider a wide range of public and private applications for customers. We’re excited to collaborate with Cubic Telecom to explore opportunities with a focus on maximizing the many benefits for the automotive ecosystem.”
