Announcement: Due to ongoing concerns over COVID-19, this event has now become online only and will be virtualWe are proud to announce that the inaugural
Military PNT conference (VIRTUAL/ONLINE ACCESS ONLY), taking place on the 19th and 20th October 2020.
With projections estimating that a 30-day GPS outage could cost US industry $45bn, the need for robust, resilient and secure
PNT is a mission imperative for commanders across the Air Force, Army and Navy.
This takes added importance at a time when the Galileo constellation is starting to reach full operating capability, as GPS Block III satellites are set to be launched to keep the constellation functioning, and the UK is exploring Galileo alternatives in the wake of its leaving the European Union. There is a clear and pressing need for national militaries, industry partners and allied nations to come together and discuss how the Global Navigation Satellite Systems will be developed and employed.
With an anticipated 120+ attendees, 6 hours of networking and an extensive exhibition space, this year's conference will be an important forum to engage key players in this essential domain.
Key reasons to attend:
- Military briefings from the US DoD comprehensively covering GPS and NTS-3 programmes: highlighting the present and future of US PNT
- Hear about a diverse array of topics including PNT resilience, legal frameworks, case study analysis on GNSS outages and warfighter navigation requirements
- Understand how the UK's Positioning, Navigation and Timings landscape will look in a post-Galileo environment
- Engage with senior military and industry leaders to understand the warfighters needs for operating in degraded and denied environments with resilient PNT and explore capabilities showcased within a dedicated exhibition hall.
