From a quick google search, we find that Krakatoa is a 3D rendering engine and using frost for particle physics.

Now searching with nokia+krakatoa, we can find a number of team members who are/have been working for projects with Nokia who have listed the use of this engine as a part of their skillset...

Mark Timms

Matthias Muller

Kevin Meinert Product Development Manager at NOKIA

Now kevin has a very interesting role, he appears to be a team lead of one of Nokias Mapping team (Here).


So far, this is the only link i can find to "Krakatoa" with nokia and that would take us back to our assumption of the original Role offer being related to nokias mapping service.



Edit: additional info...

I have just rememberd reading an older article about how Nokia are now also using their True Cars for their Living Maps fitted with LiDar sensors, which basically "uses 64 lasers to capture 1.3 million points of digital information every second of each vehicle's journey".

I would happily place a bet on nokia using Krakatoa to generate their maps from the data captured by these cars.
