Locata

Locata is the inventor of revolutionary new synchronization technology. It allows deployment of terrestrial networks which, in local coverage areas, are a true, cm-level and nanosecond accurate replacement PNT system. Locata systems were first taken up by the USAF and NASA. The technology has now been commercialized into multiple global industrial markets, especially for automation and coverage of critical national infrastructure sites like ports, logistics hubs, rail terminals, airports, mines, military bases and more. Locata works accurately indoors and in extremely difficult environments where satellite-based systems fail. Locata is now working to bring its’ game-changer nanosecond level synchronization to the mobile phone market. We work every day to make the art of PNT…. better.
