Voxelmaps

What Voxelmaps does

Voxelmaps is a geospatial technology company that builds 4D volumetric digital twins of physical environments for enterprise and government customers. Its core technology is a patent-pending voxel-based mapping approach called MRVOG (Multi-Resolution Voxel Occupancy Grids) that produces true 3D volumetric models with an added temporal dimension, achieving 1-4cm accuracy and supporting incremental change detection without regenerating underlying models. The company captures data through its SYMBO DUO mobile mapping system (dual Velodyne Puck LiDAR, six 58MP cameras, GPS/IMU, NVIDIA Jetson edge processing, optional 5G) and through terrestrial, aerial, and indoor mapping services. Captured data is processed by the Voxelmaps Insight Platform (VIP), an automated pipeline that applies deep learning for 3D semantic segmentation, sensor fusion, and feature extraction.

The company monetizes through four revenue streams: project-based spatial data collection services, SYMBO DUO hardware sales, subscription/usage-based access to the VIP processing platform, and custom AI training data set collection. It serves five primary verticals (autonomous vehicles, utilities, telecommunications, transportation, and natural resources) plus municipal government, with named engagements including the City of San Jose real-time digital twin (in partnership with NVIDIA), a major navigation company (7 million traffic signs mapped), and utility infrastructure operators for vegetation management and asset inspection. Voxelmaps has also co-developed near real-time HD map delivery with AWS and Verizon, reducing processing time from approximately 1.5 months to 15 seconds.

Voxelmaps is a privately held Delaware corporation headquartered in Austin, Texas, with additional offices in Porto (Portugal), Nottingham (UK), and Mexico City. The company originated as a spin-off from Navmii, a navigation and mapping firm, and operates with 251-500 employees across more than 26 countries. It holds strategic partnerships with NVIDIA (flagship), T-Mobile, AWS, Verizon, and research institutions including INESC TEC and the University of Porto. The company received the Geospatial World Innovation Award in 2021 and is GDPR and CCPA compliant.
