The principal turning point for the Slovak-Czech GCWare Middle East (GCWare ME) Company in its considerations on entering the market in the United Arab Emirates was presented by a high-tech project oriented to dynamic navigation for Dubai City under the name Dalílí. The Company cooperated with Intergraph Middle East to win a tender held by the Dubai municipal governmentagainst competition with such huge competitors in the field of navigation and location services as Webraska, Navteq, TeleAtlas. Project Dalili was officially put into operation on March 8, 2006. The system, utilizing web applications and computers installed in motorcars, reports on actual traffic situation on individual segments of roads and streets, updated every 5 minutes. The system also provides a platform for additional applications like PDA or SMS, and putting them into operation during next update, or possibly upgrade, of the system is under consideration.
