TomTom Paradise Island

WANTED: Drivers to explore and map paradise…

Do you and your family have a love of travelling? Do you like the sound of travelling around a tropical island and getting paid for it? If so, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for five families or groups of friends has been launched to spend two weeks on a tropical island and earn £10,000 for mapping it. The Map Paradise Project will help create five new navigable maps for Fiji, St. Lucia, Mauritius, Cape Verde and the Seychelles.

TomTom Paradise Island Successful applicants can take up to four family members or friends with them to help map a paradise island. In total, five groups will be sent on all-expenses-paid mapping assignments and each group will earn £10,000. No mapping experience is needed, but people who enjoy exploring beautiful places, don’t mind great weather and who have a decent sense of direction are preferred.

Those selected for the Project will simply need to drive around the island in a specially equipped mapping car. This mapping field work will take anything from a day to two weeks depending on how much time is spent sunbathing, swimming or exploring.

“The very first step in creating an accurate map is proper field work, and that is where the Map Paradise Project comes in,” said Corinne Vigreux, managing director, TomTom. “This project will not only create five new navigable maps, it will also give people a unique insight into how our maps are made. And where better to start mapping, than on a beautiful paradise island.”

To apply, applicants simply need to fill in a form at www.tomtom.com/summer
