Where am I on the world?
Instantaneous location information has become and will continue to be crucial in today’s and tomorrow’s economy, both for private and professional users.
GNSS is at the core of many practical solutions for meeting industrial/professional location needs.
Additional GNSS systems will expand and enhance critically the applicability of GNSSin ever more difficult applications.
Precision (better than 1m) and integrity (reliability) is becoming a critical requirement in many outdoor applications.

Opportunities
The success of mass market consumer GPS, notably in the car navigation and PND (Personal Navigation Devices), has increased the awareness of the possibilities of GPS dramatically, also in the professional market.
The modernization of GPS, the rehabilitation of GLONASS and the development and deployment of Galileo and the Chinese Compass system, is creating a multi-constellation world that enables many new services, but also requires significant investment in new GNSS hardware.

Extending the application range
More and more users expect GPS to work everywhere, but are unaware of or don’t accept its limitations.
The ubiquity of location information will increase requested robustness beyond GNSS capabilities: hybridisation is increasingly considered as a solution to eliminate the limitations of (stand-alone) GNSS
Inertial sensors
Environmental sensors
Ranging information
Others?
