With the latest launches of positioning satellites from the GALILEO constellation - and the logistics centre in Transinnes - Wallonia must step up and also become the region in which more and more applications are developed to tap into this segment.
The company CGEOS - CREATIVE GEOSENSING is also working in this area, developing solutions and services that allow businesses to capitalise on high-precision positioning.
In 2002, Wallonia developed the first GNSS network of permanent WALCORS stations to allow this high-precision geolocation.
In 1988, we introduced GPS to Belgium for topographical applications at a time when it was used only by large institutions such as IGN and ORB. We managed to convince surveyors and topographers to adopt this complex technology for their day-to-day work, making it easier for them to use and understand. Today, with new GNSS constellations such as GALILEO and BEIDOU, falling equipment prices and in-built smartphone applications, we have set ourselves the task of disseminating high-precision GNSS technology to all the company's activities and to everyone.
It is GNSS innovation and creativity that set CGEOS apart.
I look forward to meeting you and sharing this ambitious mission !
