u-blox & Position Partners expand PointPerfect GNSS augmentation service

▤ Summary

PointPerfect adopts the global industry driven SPARTN messaging format that enables the highly efficient transfer of GNSS correction data. “When it comes to mass-device or fleet applications, such as autonomous shuttles in urban environments, there are additional challenges to maintain signal and reliability in congested spaces,” he added. “Our collaboration with u-blox offers our customers an efficient, robust solution that is backed by an industry standard.” At last year’s IGNSS Conference in Sydney, Position Partners presented the results of a case study in Melbourne, where PointPerfect was tested in an urban setting on e-scooter micro mobility devices. “This expansion towards the South Pacific region, in partnership with Position Partners, is another steppingstone towards our strategic objective of enabling new automotive, industrial, and consumer applications with a globally available, mass-market-focused, GNSS augmentation service,” explains Franco de Lorenzo, Principal Product Owner, Product Center Services at u-blox. “The need for accurate, widely available positioning is growing rapidly across a diverse range of applications, including autonomous vehicles and RPAS, service robots, autonomous robotic lawnmowers, micro mobility, and emerging applications like automated driving (AD), advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), and more,” Millner added.
