PNT Governance: Time for a Reset
The U.S. has fallen behind in both space-based and APNT. Now is the time to change that with new PNT policy and stronger governance.

By Dana A. GowardResilience, authentication, complementary systems and timing assurance were among the critical issues covered at this year’s Munich Space Summit, where colleagues from both sides of the Atlantic came together to help define what a resilient PNT future looks like.
By Peter GutierrezFor the first time, the summit merged two meetings, the Munich Satellite Navigation Summit and the Munich NewSpace Summit, highlighting how NewSpace energy is starting to reshape Europe’s space model and PNT vision.
By Inside GNSSAt this year’s Munich Satellite Navigation Summit, Xona co-founder and CTO Tyler Reid did something that funding announcements rarely do on their own: he made the company’s case feel immediate.

By Inside GNSSA comprehensive look at various concepts related to CDF-overbounding, and a methodology for creating protection volumes that contain positioning errors with a high level of confidence.
By Inside GNSSReports of widespread GNSS interference in the Gulf and Strait of Hormuz region are coinciding with a sharp disruption in commercial shipping, turning the area into a real-world test of how resilient maritime navigation and monitoring are when satellite positioning becomes unreliable.
By Inside GNSSThe methods used to establish traceability of the timing data processed by a GNSS receiver to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), and the role calibrating the delay in the user’s receiving and processing equipment plays in realizing this traceability.
By Inside GNSSAuthors develop and demonstrate a receiver agnostic, real-time signal cleaner that uses innovative, efficient algorithms as well as machine learning methods.
By Inside GNSSThese misleading narratives are keeping the U.S. from advancing PNT policy, putting everyone who depends on GNSS at risk.
