    In the last 10 years, TomTom has generated the following amount of GPS trace measurements:

    9,000,000,000,000
    90,000,000,000
    900,000,000


    I can't find the answer anywhere on the TomTom website. Although it does say they have sold 70mil devices since 2004, which may or may not be useful for guessing purposes.
