The IGNSS conference has been running for over 3 decades and has evolved into the premier meeting for academics, engineers, geospatial professionals, government, defence and industry start-ups to meet, present their new advances in positioning, navigation and timing technology and exchange ideas.
 
The purpose of the IGNSS Association is to encourage research and development in GNSS, to gather information of interest to members which will benefit them in everyday applications, to act as a voice for members and business to government, professional bodies and educational bodies and to be a link for the continuing education and training of members.
 
The conference theme and structure changes every year to adapt to “hot” areas in this rapidly changing field. The program also features panel sessions on topical issues, technical sessions from students, academics and industry, poster sessions and peer reviewed conference papers.
 
In keeping with our association constitution, we will be hosting an Annual General Meeting on Thursday 6th February 2020 in Colombo Theatre A, UNSW, Sydney commencing at 12:30 pm. All delegates are invited to attend, bring their lunch and contribute. How would you like your IGNSS Association to operate? Are there things we could be doing differently or better? Please come along and help shape your IGNSS Association into the future.
