U-blox and Nordian expand PointPerfect GNSS correction service to key Brazilian agricultural regions with new L-band satellite delivery

Thalwil, Switzerland – August 21, 2024 – u-blox (SIX:UBXN) and Nordian have announced the expansion of the PointPerfect Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) correction service in Brazil. The service, now available via L-band satellite, targets key agricultural regions. Previously limited to cellular connectivity, the new delivery method overcomes the limitations posed by insufficient national network coverage.

This expansion allows users in Brazil to access PointPerfect GNSS correction data streams, enabling applications that require high-precision positioning. PointPerfect, delivering 3-6cm accuracy and 99.9% uptime reliability, is essential for autonomous farming activities, including automated machinery and field mapping.

PointPerfect's flexible, usage-based pricing plans replace traditional annual subscriptions, reducing operating costs for customers, particularly during seeding and harvest seasons. This partnership aims to make high-accuracy navigation more reliable and affordable in regions lacking cellular coverage.
