UK Presentation on eLoran – Nov 2018

December 14, 2018

Written by Editor

Blog Editor’s Note – This presentation was provided at the IAIN World Congress in Japan last month. It has a good overview of the differences between eLoran and the older Loran-C, and hints at what the new technology is capable of. While eLoran has an effective range of about 800 miles from the antenna, we are sure that, if we can make sense of such faint GPS signals from satellites that are 12,500 miles away, smart people will figure out how to make the already great performance of eLoran even better.

What Can YOU Do? How Can YOU Help?

PNT is the quiet backbone of everything but too many leaders still don’t see the risk.

But you do. You understand the systems, the dependencies, the failure chains. That insight is rare — and it’s exactly what your country needs right now. Contact your government leaders and industry decision-makers and tell them resilient PNT isn’t a feature — it’s the foundation everything else depends on.
