The app also offers POI information by Lonely Planet, Michelin and Wcities, as well as a weather service that provides 24-hour and five-day forecasts. It also feature Walk pedestrian navigation and Drive car navigation with enhanced safety and real-time traffic information covering more countries. The Ovi Maps Beta on the web is accessible at maps.ovi.com and the new version of the Ovi Maps Beta for mobile handsets is available at Nokia Betalabs. Nokia is also inviting ideas for services and content on maps through the Calling All Innovators contest in Apps on Maps category for opening Ovi Maps towards developers.
