Webinar – Galileo and the future of SatNav

Today’s Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) market is huge. Growing demand for precise location information on smartphones and other hardware has seen GNSS technology embedded in 5 billion devices around the world – a figure that is expected to grow to 8 billion by 2020.

In this Webinar, “Galileo and the future of SatNav: drones, smart cities and self-driving cars” (June 13, 5pm CET), the GSA (European Global Navigation Satellite Systems Agency) will review the market – revealing findings from the latest edition of the GSA’s GNSS Market Report – and provide insight on global trends and future developments. In particular, the webinar will explore:

  • How the GNSS market will impact the Internet of Things (IoT), Smart Cities and Big Data.
  • How Galileo enhances the functionality of many new location-based applications
  • The role that GNSS plays in the growing market of drones
  • The potential of autonomous cars powered by GNSS
