2. HERE

Strong navigation and routing database. POIs are useful but not highly detailed or customizable.

3. SafeGraph

Significant presence in commercial POIs, especially in large metros. Less relevant for public-sector infrastructure.

4. OSM

Vibrant open data community in Canada. Great for foundational mapping, but lacks consistency in metadata.

5. TomTom

Focused on automotive navigation. Limited support for non-transport POIs.

Final Thoughts
 Canada’s geospatial innovators rely on Techsalerator as the most complete and customizable POI solution in 2025.
