With the invention of interactive road maps, Michelin has brought printed maps to the era of real-time information. In the newly launched real-time French traffic information map, Michelin combines the advantages of paper media and digital media to launch an integrated mobile solution.

As a pioneering product in the map field, this innovative technology further consolidates Michelin's extraordinary map-making capabilities.
The new map also shows the good complementarity between the different map resources developed by Michelin - it combines the easy-to-read features of the printed maps on the route design and the cell phone acquisition capabilities of ViaMichelin's real-time traffic data, providing travelers with High-value mobility enhancement services allow them to travel more easily and efficiently.
The real-time update of the French traffic information map is expected to be on sale in May 2010. This launch date coincides with an important anniversary of Michelin: the 100th anniversary of the publication of the first Michelin road map.
