TerraPoiNT - Resilient Positioning System

TerraPoiNT stands out as a cutting-edge solution from NextNav, addressing the limitations of GPS by providing a resilient, terrestrial-based PNT system. This service supplements traditional GPS systems, emerging as an essential technology for environments where satellite-based systems falter, such as indoors and urban landscapes. TerraPoiNT employs a network of terrestrial transmitters to deliver precise positioning services, offering a robust alternative encompassed by encrypted signals to thwart interception attempts like spoofing and jamming. NextNav’s terrestrial network operates on a flexible frequency, utilizing the 920-928MHz spectrum, and is strategically designed to support seamless integration with existing GPS infrastructures. By acting as an overlay network, TerraPoiNT guarantees uninterrupted PNT services independent of satellite-based methods, making it indispensable for telecommunications, public safety, and critical infrastructure protection. Offering a broad deployment across U.S. markets, TerraPoiNT employs advanced chipsets and waveform technologies to ensure high performance and energy efficiency, positioning itself as a powerful ally to existing GPS systems. Integration with major semiconductor manufacturers has resulted in solutions that expand location capabilities into challenging environments, thus revolutionizing the possibilities of positioning applications in sectors like autonomous vehicles and asset tracking.

NextNav 3D - 3D Location Visualization

NextNav 3D offers an advanced visualization capability that integrates seamlessly with existing emergency response and communication systems, elevating the situational awareness of first responders. By incorporating 3D data into traditional geolocation services, NextNav 3D provides a clearer understanding of vertical positioning within multi-story structures, enhancing emergency response efficiency. This comprehensive service includes Height Above Terrain (HAT) and Estimated Floor Level (EFL) data, crucial for rapid positioning of individuals in emergency scenarios. Specifically designed to complement existing 9-1-1 and computer-aided dispatch systems, NextNav 3D transforms the way agencies visualize incidents by adding a vertical dimension to spatial data. Such enhancements allow command centers to know exactly what floor an incident is occurring, significantly improving response times and coordination in complex, indoor environments. Through an SDK, developers can integrate these 3D visualization capabilities into both desktop and mobile applications. The SDK provides tools to launch a 3D viewer, presenting environments with accurate building wireframes, and offering rotation and tilt controls for optimal viewing angles. This ensures first responders and public safety officials can accurately track and maneuver around scenes efficiently. The cost-effective nature of this service makes it an ideal option for agencies operating under tight budgets yet requiring advanced visualization capabilities.

Pinnacle - Vertical Positioning System

NextNav's Pinnacle technology excels in providing precise vertical geolocation data, making it invaluable for modern digital applications needing 3D location precision. Utilizing the barometric sensors found in a wide range of devices, Pinnacle can achieve accurate altitude measurements that surpass the FCC’s requirement with metro-wide coverage using a dedicated network. This system offers easy integration through simple software updates, allowing developers to improve their applications with Pinnacle's robust vertical positioning capability. The technology is supported by a complex infrastructure of altitude stations, which maintain a carefully curated, high-density survey dataset to ensure accurate, real-time altitude data across metropolitan areas. This makes it particularly valuable in urban environments, where traditional GPS might falter due to interference from dense construction. Notably, the Pinnacle system also prioritizes security and confidentiality, having undergone independent SOC 2 T-II examinations. Besides the technical prowess, Pinnacle is an industry leader in enhancing situational awareness and operational effectiveness for first responders. Its easy-to-use SDKs and APIs enable the seamless integration of their technology into existing digital architectures, supporting varied use cases ranging from public safety to commercial location-based services. This wide-ranging applicability makes it a critical component for any organization seeking to improve or expand their positioning capabilities.
