Navigation Satellite System Type Insights
Based on Type, the Navigation Satellite System Market is segmented into Devices and Value Added Services. The Value Added Services captured the biggest market share by solution in 2022 and is likely to maintain its dominance in the future years. The value-added services segment includes services such as navigation, mapping, telematics, timing and synchronization, and other applications which include gaming and weather forecasting.
Navigation as a value-added service helps in monitoring and controlling the movement of a vehicle from one place to another. GNSS technology provides accuracy within a range of few to 10meters in a single point positioning technique or sub-meter to a few meters level in differential GNSS technique (DGNSS). Mapping as a value-added service of GNSS is a method for the creation of maps which is a graphic symbolic representation of the significant features of a part of the surface of the Earth.
GNSS is an essential tool for mapping as it creates innovative opportunities in creating interactive maps with high accuracy. Telematics is a method of monitoring assets such as cars, trucks, heavy equipment, or even ships by using GNSS and onboard diagnostics to record movements on a computerized map. The use of telematics devices helps in improving fuel economy, getting vehicle-maintenance alerts, and optimizing routes.
March 2022
Trimble and Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. announced the availability of Trimble RTX GNSS technology for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Snapdragon 888 Mobile Platforms. This technology allows enhanced location capabilities in premium Android smartphones around the world. The integration of Trimble RTX GNSS technology, a corrective services platform, with Snapdragon helps to higher quality, more accurate location-based user experiences like as auto navigation with lane-level guidance.
January 2020
Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. announced the release of three new mobile platforms: the Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G, 662, and 460, which will offer greater user experiences in connection, gaming, and entertainment. These new mobile platforms provide Dual-Frequency (L1 and L5) GNSS to improve location positioning accuracy and resilience, and are the first system-on-chip solutions to support Navigation with Indian Constellation (NavIC).

Navigation Satellite System Application Insights
Based on Application, the Navigation Satellite System Market is segmented into
Location Based Services (LBS)
, Automotive/Road, Surveying, Rail, Aviation, Others, and Agriculture. The Location Based Services (LBS)segment captured the biggest market share by solution in 2022 and is likely to maintain its dominance in the future years.
GNSS-enabled location-based services comprise a multitude of applications to meet different usage conditions and needs. These applications are supported by several categories of devices mainly smartphones and tablets, but also specific equipment such as personal tracking devices, wearables, digital cameras, and portable computers. Also, the use of location-based services in mHealth is driving the growth of wearables and smartphone apps in the healthcare segment. The introduction of Galileo paves the way for the development of enhanced location-based services (LBS) applications.
It improves location-based services and applications for users, ranging from enhanced positioning performances to the development of more sophisticated augmented reality applications in outdoor environments. Some common applications of LBS include local news, points of interest, directory assistance, fleet management, asset tracking, location-sensitive building, and local advertisement.
