GoWithMi - Mapping the World on Blockchain

Introduction

GoWithMi is building the world’s first complete decentralized location-based services (DLBS) infrastructure. It aims to provide a complete trusted geospatial value exchange service for large-scale commerce from data, computing, personal terminal to commercial ecological, and making value flows multidimensional, safer and smarter, complement the last key component of the blockchain to empower the real economy application.

GoWithMi's geospatial consensus ecological network consists of geospatial consensus data production, spatial computing power network, self-organizing geospatial asset node, and business application sharing support platform. Integrated DLBS, super oracle, and consensus map platform, based on the algorithm consensus to motivate participation and achieve benefit for everyone, cross-chain supports all blockchain platforms, one-stop support for all applications that retrieval location-based services, enables offline business to leap into the new era of programmable business, and enters an on chain and off chain Turing's complete self-circulation business ecology.

Key Feature

DLBS
GoWithMi will completely decentralize the core component of the Internet ecosystem——geolocation service, making it the core component of the entire blockchain network, and can be freely invoked by various upper-layer applications of the Internet and blockchain networks.

GoWithMi's decentralized location-based service (DLBS) features cover a complete set of systems of map location, search and query, route navigation, peripheral and traffic information search, spatial smart mining, etc. All data and services are run on GoWithMi’s innovated the world's first "spatial computing blockchain network Gaia". Gaia can realize storing full data on the chain, considers the decentralization of the POW and the high efficiency of the EOS, access equal rights mining of all objects and being able to resist "mining pool control". Consequently, allowing the decentralized operation of the location-based service system will never end, monopolists no longer control the business lifeline of the corporations, and that the personal trajectory privacy is no longer occupied and used without compensation.

Super Spatial Oracle
When all blockchains are applied to reality, they will encounter an ultimate problem: how to connect the “untrusted” world outside the blockchain to the “trusted” world within the blockchain? This requires a "trusted gateway mechanism." GoWithMi provides such a trusted gateway mechanism.

GoWithMi super spatial oracle provided a "trusted gateway mechanism” of original blockchain and required for all smart contracts related to location-based services, linking the two different worlds on and off the chain with “trusted” mechanism. It can provide a trigger response of trusted location-based data for smart contracts, allowing programmable network machine of Turing-complete, which is represented by Ethereum to seamlessly integrate with offline business, actively promote the rapid development of location-related distributed industries such as share travel, tourism, food delivery, express delivery, positional precision advertising, and behavioral credit finance, allowing the offline business to leap into an era of programmable business.

Consensus Map
In the world, there is 60% of the regions and 4 billion populations still unable to enjoy the same quality map services as the developed regions. The reason is that the scale of map data has traditionally relied heavily on global employment collection, which is a high cost that even Google can't afford.

The GoWithMi Consensus Map has taken a new approach creating the first series of “spatial consensus mechanism” that allow people in any corner of the world can jointly maintain a “world map data book” without any threshold. We through the exquisite design of the consensus game mechanisms such as POM (Proof of Mapping) and Spatial Bancor, subversively solve the core problems of map industry including cooperative production, auto supervision and value evaluation, breaking the boundaries of human labor organizations, allowing people to jointly build, maintain, and share a “world map” without any thresholds, and providing contributors with a fair return and let the people all over the world can enjoy the equal quality digital travel services.

Component Platform

Decentralized Mapping
Through a series of spatial consensus mechanisms and protocols, GoWithMi drives real-world geospatial data to migrate to the blockchain world, producing global coverage, real-time updated, real and tamper-proof geospatial trusted data on the blockchain. Mainly includes:

Proof of Mapping(PoM)
GoWithMi abstracts data collection and production into a “space coordination game process”. Under the spatial coordination game mechanism, it coordinates the collection and verification of each participant through a series of token economic behaviors such as Token pledge, reward, gambling, and reward.

Spacial Bancor Protocol
GoWithMi correlates the single data value of the data collection and supply with the overall data scale requirement, using the Space Bancor Protocol to dynamically balance the data collection and supply and demand relationship between data collection and token rewards.

Decentralized Computing

GoWithMi innovates the world's first "spatial computing blockchain network Gaia" as the main blockchain network, creatively designed the "spatial double-chain double-sharding" structure. The main chain Gaia can realize storing full data on the chain, and considers the decentralization of the POW and the high efficiency of the EOS, providing application scenarios that have more dimensions than the IPFS, achieving equal rights mining of all objects and being able to resist "mining pool control". The Gaia main chain network mainly includes: (Gaia is the god of the earth in ancient Greek mythology, the mother of the gods, the first creation god born in chaos, and one of the original natural forces that can create life)

GeoMesh Sharding Based Data Structure Mechanism
GoWithMi starts from the lowest layer——the data layer of the technical architecture and reconstructs the location-based service technology architecture to make it compatible with the blockchain technology framework. It mainly deals with the full-scale data used by the traditional map service to conduct GeoMesh Sharding. The map data layer is deconstructed into the equally data network of GeoMesh by the traditional centralized data form. The GeoMesh block data size is adapted to the underlying point-to-point network protocol of the blockchain. The single GeoMesh is functionally decoupled and can provide full-featured location services independently. The parallelization can provide location-based services in various regions of the world.

Spatial Root Chain
GoWithMi has independently developed an automatic compilation engine for map data, which is the first in the world to realize the full automation of map data without any human intervention. Based on this technological breakthrough, the spatial root chain can achieve “map data production on the chain”. The spatial root chain uses the DPOS BFT (Pipelined Byzantine Fault Tolerance) consensus for super node synchronization. The spatial root chain focuses on the implementation of data consensus production smart contracts, the updating of spatial geographic data books, and the production and distribution of GeoMesh data.

Spatial Peer to Peer Computing Network
Each node of space peer-to-peer computing network synchronizes GeoMesh data according to the requirement of location-based service, and the newly generated GeoMesh data of the spatial root chain spread throughout the peer-to-peer computing network. Based on the parallel decoupling feature of Geo Mesh space, any device can cache one or more GeoMesh, so that the CPU, memory, hard disk and network of all objects can participate in spatial peer-to-peer computing mining, providing a complete spatial location-based service based on GeoMesh for the network and receive token bookkeeping income.

Spatial Multiparty Random Sharding Protocol
Original design "Spatial Multiparty Random Sharding Protocol", based on GeoMesh sharding rules, randomly connecting multiple nodes to form a "Sharding Chain" of a built-in spatial oracle, can perform blockchain bookkeeping and smart contract execution, and local service convergence. The spatial sharding mechanism enables block production to be carried out between massive equal rights nodes, thereby ensuring high performance of commercial-grade requirements and avoiding centralized defects like the EOS super-node method; and the introduction of the concept of "multiparty random", The difficulty of the attack is increased exponentially to achieve a "1% attack".

Decentralized Organizing

It mainly refers to the map data maintenance community with the spatial digital land rights as the core by anchoring the income of spatial digital land rights with the obligation of data maintenance. In the process of pursuing benefit maximization for community members such as landlords, miners, users, and merchants, global autonomy from on the chain to off the chain will achieve, promoting the two-way cycle and continuous development of GoWithMi's internal and external ecology.

Spatial Digital Land Rights（GoZone Assets）
GoWithMi divides the spatial assets of the digital world by anchoring the permanent land in real space. Specifically, based on spatial big data (spatial agglomeration algorithm, crowd cluster analysis, etc.), the global geospatial space is divided into independent functional areas, mainly residential districts, work districts, and consumption districts. GoZone is an independent digital space area that covers these functional areas, with scalable business value and highly centralized maintainability. GoZone's range of benefits is naturally clear and natural.

Spatial Digital Land Rights（GoZone Rights）
The spatial digital land rights are the ownership of the GoWithMi spatial digital assets. The owner (landlord) is the main body of all the all profits in the GoZone area, and the smart contract directly distributes the generated income. GoZone benefits include intra-region map data call revenue, location advertising revenue, business search revenue, transaction commissions, business diversion sales dividend, GoZone appreciation gains, and more.

Decentralized Sharing

A one-stop solution for providing underlying spatial data, location-based services, spatial computing, location smart contracts, Token payments, etc. for GoWithMi's own ecosystem and global decentralized shared ecosystem, which can be widely used in local O2O services, shared economic services, car insurance based on usage, personal financial services, personal precise location advertising, internet of vehicles, map API, etc. actively promote the blockchain to serve the real economy, allow offline business to leap into the new era of programmable business.

GoWithMi Mobile App
The GoWithMi App acts as a mobile terminal for Gaia's main chain and map functions, integrating full-featured map services, Mapper tools, GMAT payments,

DLBS API/SDK

The API/SDK covers the complete functions of map location, search and query, route navigation, peripheral and traffic information search, spatial smart mining, etc. All data and services run on the decentralized chain network built by GoWithMi.

Super Spatial Oracle API/SDK
