The state of global positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) has advanced rapidly over the last two years. Manufacturers, service providers and buyers continue to adapt to new developments in technology, policy and both business and consumer markets.

Industries that rely on and provide GPS-related solutions also are changing rapidly. Technological advances, modernization, commoditization of technology, the Internet and the increasing availability of location-based services will affect manufacturers, service providers and buyers of GPS and related technology. GPS World and Ventana Research are collaborating on a research program that will provide valuable feedback to help industry participants understand changing trends, priorities and opportunities in the PNT industry.
