CellGuide Introduces HiMap(TM) High-Performance Urban Positioning

REHOVOT, Israel, October 18, 2010/PRNewswire/ --     CellGuide, the GNSS SNAP technology pioneer, today announced the
availability of its patent-pending HiMap(TM) technology for precision urban
positioning. HiMap(TM) is now commercially available for CellGuide's ACLYS
chip, ACLYS IP Core, and GPSense engine. HiMap(TM) is also available for
licensing as an add-on to GNSS receiver manufacturers.

    HiMap(TM) significantly improves GNSS navigation performance in urban
canyons. City skylines create particularly demanding operational conditions
for GPS receivers. Line-of-sight blockages and erroneous measurements
adversely affect the accuracy of GNSS device positioning, tracking and
navigation. CellGuide's HiMap(TM) technology boosts GNSS receiver accuracy
and availability in built-up areas. Based on high-resolution, worldwide
digital elevation mapping (DEM), HiMap(TM) serves as an additional beacon for
better navigation accuracy with four or more received satellites, and true
3-D navigation with three received satellites.

    HiMap(TM) enhances GNSS receiver positioning for diverse applications
including vehicle and pedestrian navigation. Of particular note, HiMap(TM)
advanced compression provides global urban coverage in a compact database of
only a few megabytes.

    "Our multi-beacon SNAP technology ensures an enhanced user experience for
location-based applications. HiMap(TM) is an impressive innovation on our
technology roadmap." said Boaz Efroni Rotman, CellGuide's VP Sales and
Marketing. "We continue to add beacons to our positioning engine to ensure
industry-leading precision in outdoor navigation and indoor applications."

    A white paper detailing HiMap(TM) technology and benefits is available on
request from CellGuide. Please contact CellGuide Ltd. at
himap@cell-guide.com.
