Garmin Gps Japan Map
Why aren’t there any English GPS maps for Japan?
I mean, why? There are GPS maps for almost every developed country, but for Japan there are none that i know of (neither Navteq nor Teleatlas, which are the two major cartography companies out there).
I’ve seen several Japanese GPS solutions, but they unfortunately don’t have an English option. I’ve never seen a major company like TomTom or Garmin (among many others), offering a solution for that market.
So, what company does the cartography out there (Navteq or Teleatlas like), and why doesn’t TomTom or Garmin use their data in order to develop an English GPS solution? There has to be some kind of logical explanation.
Kind Regards.
Because there is not a Large Market in Japan for English Only drivers in Japan to Justify the costs or making English GPS.
Japan is 99 percent Japanese….they speak Japanese.
There are very few people that do not so it wouldnt be that profitable.
