April 22, 2011 - The use of location based services (LBS) has been well received among end users across regions. This can be mainly attributed to the increasing demand for real time services, widespread availability of highly sophisticated portable device and with the development of new location-based applications. In the LBS market, navigation still remains the largest segment, followed by friend finder applications and traffic management. The market for location-based services is expected to grow to US$12.9 billion in 2014.
