The Global Earth Observation Decentralized Network (GEODNET) Foundation — the organization governing the blockchain-based global navigation network GEODNET — has introduced GEO-PULSE, a GPS navigation device to enhance positioning accuracy for everyday drivers.
<p>With the global vehicle count reaching 1.4 billion, reliable GPS positioning remains a challenge due to obstacles such as parking garages, trees, buildings and atmospheric interference. GEO-PULSE effectively addresses these issues by reducing location errors from 1 to 3 m to less than 0.1 m under typical driving conditions.</p> <p> GEO-PULSE includes a one-year subscription to GEODNET’s location accuracy service. The device connects seamlessly to iOS and Android devices via Bluetooth, which can improve the accuracy of navigation apps such as Google Maps to provide precise turn-by-turn directions. This connectivity ensures that smartphone users can easily access the improved navigation capabilities offered by GEO-PULSE.</p> <p>The system is powered by GEODNET’s extensive RTK network, which consists of more than 10,000 validated stations across 100 countries. The device combines sensor fusion with blockchain-powered location correction to deliver centimeter-level navigation accuracy. It supports various automotive applications, including advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), lane-level navigation and precise positioning for mobility services.</p> <p><p>The post <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.gpsworld.com/geodnet-foundation-uses-rtk-technology-for-precise-positioning/">GEODNET Foundation uses RTK technology for precise positioning</a> first appeared on <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.gpsworld.com">GPS World</a>.</p></p>
