High GNSS Accuracy – An ongoing Quest

Prof. Joël van Cranenbroeck, Managing Director of CGEOS® Creative Geosensing Srl and Corporate Fellow of ComNav, delivered a speech emphasized the ongoing quest of ComNav to provide high GNSS accuracy where it needs. ComNav is entirely committed to bring the best out of all GNSS signals and frequencies and considering the new LEO constellations. From GNSS OEM modules to dedicated GNSS receivers and complete solutions, ComNav is one of the few companies with the full value chain capabilities by owning the core technology in GNSS. In 2022, ComNav introduced the very first GNSS Laser IMU RTK - VENUS to the market, enabling rodless surveying and stakeout. ComNav launched the Mars and Mars Pro GNSS Laser IMU RTK receivers, expanding the boundaries of surveying and stakeout to hard-to-reach, signal-blocked, and hazardous areas.

As one of the first Chinese GNSS technology enterprises to enter the European market, ComNav's products have already been deeply involved in multiple flagship European projects, from the establishment of the first BeiDou CORS station in Europe to the application of the SinoGNSS T300 GNSS receiver in the construction of Scandinavian highest building, the KARLATORNET in Goteborg, Sweden, the GNSS monitoring of the ThyssenKrupp test tower in Rottweil, Germany as well as Poland's sensible four autonomous driving project, Belgium's railway maintenance and exploitation projects, and Finland's railway surveying projects to cite only few.
