There was also discussion of the SouthPAN project, a joint initiative of the Australian and New Zealand governments to provide satellite-based navigation and precise positioning services (SBAS and PPP) throughout both countries' land and maritime areas. In this project GMV will develop the system's processing and control centers, while also supervising and guaranteeing compliance with the delivery of both services in the region. To conclude, Irma Rodríguez, GMV's Director of Satellite Navigation Systems Products and Services, presented GMV GSharp, GMV's full and precise GNSS-based positioning solution. This GMV-developed solution provides ultra-precise and reliable calculation of user positions using advanced algorithms developed by the company, in line with rigorous security and integrity regulations and the highest quality standards for critical software development. This solution is currently used in various applications in a variety of markets, such as autonomous driving, precision agriculture, space missions, etc. Following the presentations, attendees had the chance to witness a live demonstration of SouthPAN's performance and GMV GSharp demo platform, which is representative of the onboard solution for autonomous vehicles. Attendees expressed particular interest both in GMV's growth track record and in the company's top-level technological capacity in the field of navigation, in addition to its internationalization and its commitment to quality and competitiveness.
