"Rear View", an information and control system, is used by the Home Front Command in coping with various events that could occur in peacetime or in wartime.  The system is designed to provide current information for supporting decisions during crises that may occur due to a variety of reasons, such as launches of missiles / Katyusha rockets toward Israel, acts of terror, natural disasters (earthquakes, floods, etc.) or disasters resulting from human actions (accidents with hazardous materials, plane crash, building collapse, etc.).

Do you sometimes wonder how nice it would be if you had current information on the road traffic in order to be able to decide when and how to drive?  Have you discovered that the ordinary traffic reports are sometimes out of date?

It is known that one of the most useful features that a geographic map could offer are traffic conditions on the road network that it displays. 

New navigation system for U-Drive vehicles

How many times did you find yourself looking for an address on the way to an appointment?  How many hours a week do you waste looking for a parking lot?  The children are starving -is there a restaurant nearby?

All these problems are now solved by the PDASPA u-drive navigation system in collaboration with HEKOSOFT of Germany. 

Destinator Navigation System offers a range of navigation solutions for easy and rapid orientation with visual and audio guidance to the final destination.

A GPS based system operating in a Windows CE environment, Destinator can be installed in any device that supports this operating system (such as Pocket PC).

You can learn within just a few minutes how to reach any destination in Israel, simply by entering the desired address on the screen and choosing the "navigation" option.  The system calculates the desired travel route while displaying it on the device monitor.

Destinator software is developed in Israel and used throughout the world.  In Israel it is based on the Mapa GISrael NAV geographic information database while abroad it uses maps from  Navteq and TeleAtlas.

The most recent update, Destinator 6, offers several enhancements of previous versions.  Now it is possible to view a 2D or 3D display, with street names, route calculation within seconds, optimal navigation for routes with many stops, option of entering an address from a full-size keyboard, a function of avoiding travel on undesirable roads and an option for free viewing of the map.

This software is also available for Europe, U.S., Canada, Israel and Australia.

Navigation System - the Next Generation

The Nav N'Go navigation system permits accessing any address by listening to assorted voice directions.  The screens and guidelines are constructed in a manner making it easy to understand what can be expected down the road by a quick peek at the screen, with no need of manipulation, as part of relaxed and safe driving.

In the past year MIRS adopted GPS, maps and navigation as part of its leading marketing strategy.

Close cooperation between MIRS and Mapa, resulted in most MIRS end units enabled to serve as mobile geographic platforms, facilitating a variety of geographic applications.
