Global Navigation Satellite Systems Engineering, Policy, and Design
Oxford Technical Solutions Ltd (OxTS) is an established supplier of inertial navigation systems (INS), particularly to the automotive industry. Since 1998, its products have been providing critical data about where a vehicle is, how it’s oriented and how it’s moving. More recently the company has been making a big splash in the airborne mapping sector.
