Trusted positioning takes flight—and field

Dive into two articles focusing on how our customers rely on trusted, precise positioning for drone applications—from Hoverfly Technologies’ tethered drones used in defence and security to an aerial survey of Lahaina, Hawaii, by Basemap Consulting after the devastating wildfire. In the field, read about how AgXeed’s AgBot tractor set a world record in autonomous ploughing and learn how Looq AI’s award-winning handheld system is revolutionising reality capture.

Building resilience with AI and real-world testing

Three technical articles written by engineers from Hexagon’s Autonomous Solutions Business Area show how AI can be leveraged to solve GNSS signal multipath and safeguard against interference from jamming. Real-world jamming and spoofing trials demonstrate the performance of advanced GNSS receiver algorithms.

Graphics and correlation functions for no multipath, line-of-sight multipath, and non-line-of-sight multipath.

Is artificial intelligence the key to unlocking the multipath problem in GNSS?

Breakthroughs in AI are unlocking a new set of possibilities for multipath detection and mitigation.
