RNN (Radionavigeringsnämnden) invites to a seminar within Positioning, Navigation and Time (PNT) in Stockholm Wednesday 18 May 2011. The seminar will be held in Scandinavian language.

By next June, the United States GPS constellation will attain the most optimal geometry in its nearly 33-year history. Over time, that means a more robust signal, more accuracy and more reliability in GPS-challenged environments.

Norway will maintain their Loran C system, while Russia will modernize their Chayka system. The two are going to be synchronized so they can function as a backup for electronic navigation when the satellite navigations systems are not available.

An H-2A rocket flew to space Saturday Sept. 11th with a Japanese satellite to meet a pressing need for improved navigation services amid the country's numerous mountains and high-rise buildings.

A Proton rocket blasted off overnight Wednesday September 1st with three spacecraft to help expand Russia's satellite navigation system to provide positioning services around the world.
