The Navigator statementTaking action
Far from being a theoretical concern, recent incidents in geopolitical conflict zones have underscored the very real and immediate dangers posed by compromised global navigational satellite systems (GNSS).
The Navigator statementGNSS jamming
GNSS such as GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou are key elements of positioning, navigation and timing. Their signals, however, can be affected not only by unintentional interference but also by intentional jamming. The growing reliance of ships on GNSS means that seafarers need to be aware of how GNSS jamming happens and how to detect it
The Navigator statementNavBrief
Do you know where your ship is? Now imagine that the satellite navigation system has failed, and the position is now longer marked on the ECDIS – or is showing as somewhere the ship cannot possibly be. Now what happens?
