World GPS Market

The commercial uses of Global Positioning System (GPS) are diverse with applications across various industries. Some applications are simple, such as determining a position, whereas others are complex blends of GPS with communications and other technologies. The rapid growth of commercial applications in recent years has surprised many industry observers and firms building GPS satellites and equipment. The differing needs of commercial and civil GPS users and the availability of alternative solutions for meeting them have led to a highly diverse and competitive market for GPS technologies, equipment, and services.


The market for commercial uses of GPS can be segmented by the differing needs of customers for time and spatial information. Initially, one of the original purposes of GPS was to improve en route navigation for military ships and aircraft. market research

However, there are dozens of uses of GPS today, with new applications being reported each month in academic, business, and public media. Adoption of GPS in aviation, maritime and waterways, highway and construction, public transportation, railroads, communications, emergency response (e.g., ambulance and fire), surveying, weather, scientific, space, environmental protection, recreation (e.g., sports events), law enforcement and legal services, and agriculture and forestry have created a wide opportunity to the GPS market.

World Smart Grid

This research report presents an in-depth analysis of the development, applications, products, manufacturers, and trends in the worldwide development of the Smart Grid. After over one hundred years of electric power, it has become apparent that a new type of power grid is needed to serve societal needs in the 21st Century. Over time, a relatively primitive but reliable power grid has morphed into an exceedingly complex machine that can no longer be controlled through human actions alone and one which has become brittle and subject to catastrophic failure – such as the blackout in the northeastern United States and Canada in 2003.


Simply put, today’s power grid is having difficulty meeting the high quality, stable, and reliable power requirements of an increasingly sophisticated, technology-oriented world. The power grid is also in need of significant maintenance and repair, with estimates ranging as high as $1 trillion over the next 20 years for the United States alone. However, “smart/intelligent” technologies now exist that can significantly improve grid performance.


Smart Grid development is moving into a “normal” period of growth following substantial activity as the results of government stimulus funding. As this funding runs its course, utilities and other stakeholders are having a harder time will new development efforts as a result of economic conditions, regulatory uncertainty, consumer acceptance, and other factors that constrain their ability to fund many Smart Grid projects. These and other considerations are addressed in the report as they pertain to inhibiting or advancing development of the Smart Grid. Company Profiles
