Ministry of State Security: A foreign company conducted illegal surveying and mapping under the cover of intelligent driving research

On October 16th, the national security organs found that a foreign enterprise, Company A, through cooperation with Company B with surveying and mapping qualifications in our country, illegally carried out geographical information surveying and mapping activities in our country under the cover of carrying out intelligent driving research in automobiles. Company A is a project contractor in a key sensitive field in a certain country. According to the "Surveying Law of the People's Republic of China", it does not have the qualifications to carry out geographical information surveying and mapping activities in our country alone. In order to avoid the supervision of the competent industry departments in our country, the company outsourced the project many times on the grounds of intelligent driving research, and finally entrusted the domestic company B with surveying and mapping qualifications to implement it. Driven by the temptation of economic interests, Company B is completely reduced to a marionette of Company A, and its surveying and mapping qualifications also play a cover role for Company A to illegally obtain surveying and mapping data in our country.
