Market and technology drivers in high Precision Agriculture support high long term growth
Market trends
• Increased demographic pressure on yield
with limited resources available
• Market reaction:
• Consolidation of farms foster Precision
Agriculture
• GNSS-based solutions in farms show
measureable cost savings and while
increasing the yield

Market and technology drivers inSurveying support high long term growth
GNSS use in Surveying isprogressing in all regions
Challenges ahead in Surveying market segment
Areas of interest for GNSS research in Mapping and Surveying
Current status of the EGNSSadoption in Surveying
Current status of the EGNSSadoption in Mapping
Conclusions
Current status of the EGNSS adoption in Surveying
High precision segment, consists in plotting maps and charts that contain locations of points of interest.
E-GNSS in surveying often means the need for centimetre level accuracy.
Use of Surveying will be complemented with Galileo providing benefits for more demanding applications.
Cadastral Construction
Mine Marine
Surveying disciplines
GNSS use in Surveying is progressing in all regions
In the Rest of the World is expected to experience major growth and develop much faster than in Europe or North America.
Falling prices will be an important driver for the uptake of surveying.Revenues will be generated mainly by cadastral and construction surveying.
Core revenue from GNSS device sales by region
Current status of the EGNSS adoption in Mapping
g
Basic precision segment, consists
in plotting maps and charts that
contain locations of points of interest.
For many mapping applications
meter level accuracy is sufficient
Applications such as thematic
mapping for small and medium
municipalities, forestry and park
management as well as surveying of
utility infrastructures can benefit
from EGNOS.
EGNOS is providing free accuracy improvement that is widely available
Market and technology drivers in Surveying support high long term growth
Market trends
• Surveying seeks to maximise the accuracy of measurements and signal availability in harsh environment
• Property-related activities stimulating growth in shipments of GNSS devices
• Cadastral and Construction related applications remain the leading actors of the sustained growth of GNSS shipments
Technology trends• Dual frequency and multi-constellation expected by Galileo and GPSIII (L1/L5 resp. E1/E5)• Galileo Commercial Service (CS) will deliver high accuracy and improve robustness• Galileo Commercial Service (CS) Authentication of interest for Mine and Cadastral surveying• Benefits are expected in PPP (reducing converging period) and DGNSS
Challenges ahead in Surveying market segment
Surveying challenges:
• cm level accuracy range need
• High productivity requirements
• Limited line of sight visibility (tree canopy)
• Multipath in urban canyons
• Operations in Northern latitudes
• Expensive highly sophisticated equipment
E-GNSS features:
• Galileo dual frequency
• Galileo CS High Precision and Authentication
• Stronger signal compared to GPS
• Higher elevation of satellites
E-GNSS added value:
• Enhanced precision
• Increased availability
• Faster ambiguity resolution
• Better operations in northern latitudes
• Better operations in urban canyons, i.e. where multipath occurs
• Better operations with limited visibility
• Cost efficiency due to high competition
Areas of interest for GNSS research in Mapping and Surveying
Use of Mapping based on EGNOS will be complemented with Galileo providing benefits for Surveying
The emergence of new constellations and multiple frequencies along with decreasing device prices will open up the market of Mapping and Surveying
GNSS devices more and more accessible at lower cost (EGNOS enabled)
…and with increased performance (leveraging Galileo)
Technology trends for EGNSS
Galileo CS (HP surveying)- Accuracy, continuity
- Reliability with AUT (tbc)
- Resistance against multipath
EGNOS and Galileo OS DF (basic precision for mapping)- Autonomous basic accuracy solution for low cost
Conclusions
EGNOS is providing free accuracy improvement that is widely available
In Agriculture, EGNSS answers the market trends by• Enhance precision
