Geopost has launched Geopost Vision, a new business unit designed to provide frequently updated, street-level road data across Europe using imagery collected from the company’s delivery fleet.
The logistics group, which operates more than 65,000 vehicles in 22 countries, plans to use connected dashcams installed on several thousand of its vans to capture anonymized images during routine delivery routes. According to Geopost, the system already covers millions of kilometers in 11 countries and is expected to expand to 21 European countries by mid-2026.
Announcing the launch, Martin Calmels, CEO of Geopost Vision, said, “By harnessing Geopost’s unmatched delivery network and state-of-the-art camera technology, we’re building Europe’s most up-to-date and scalable street-level imagery platform, providing access to GDPR compliant data that can enhance navigation and road safety, or improving the quality of urban infrastructure.”
The imagery – collected passively across urban, suburban and rural areas – undergoes automated anonymization to remove personal identifiers such as faces and licence plates. The company says the data will not be publicly available and will instead be supplied through APIs to customers including mapping providers, mobility companies, insurers and smart-city operators. Typical uses include detecting new road signs, validating road networks, monitoring infrastructure conditions and supplying training data for driver-assistance systems.
Geopost emphasizes that its approach enables high refresh rates because delivery vehicles travel more than two billion kilometers per year. Each delivery tour contributes to updating the road environment dataset, giving the company the ability to capture changes such as new road signs, speed limits or traffic lights.
Current coverage includes the UK, France, Spain, Italy, Germany, Hungary, Slovakia, Ireland, the Czech Republic, Portugal and the Netherlands. Expansion is planned for Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Belgium, Luxembourg, Croatia, Slovenia, Bulgaria and Romania.
Geopost Vision aims to support several sectors, including mapping and navigation, automotive development, infrastructure maintenance, urban planning and insurance. The venture also aligns with wider European efforts to use data to improve transportation reliability and safety.
The company will showcase the system at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, Nevada, together with Nextbase, its camera and imagery platform provider.
