I cordially welcome the participants of the 3rd International Satellite Navigation Forum.
At
present the satellite navigation technologies like Internet is becoming
a global means and is finding an application practically in all areas
of the activities of a man.
The
Russian system GLONASS as one of the two operating global navigation
systems attracts increasing attention of potential consumers both in
our country and abroad. Today the structure of the orbit group GLONASS
provides 100% navigation servicing of Russia and 98% in the global
scope. The increasing interest in the system GLONASS is confirmed with
the composition and number of delegates of the annual International
Satellite Navigation Forum which will take place for the third time.
The Forum has really become a main event for the Russian navigation
community where the participants of the navigation market can not only
tell about their achievements, share their experience, but also gain
new business contacts, which is necessary for successful business
development.
I wish the Forum participants success and good luck in the implementation of new projects.

In
Russia month May is rich in significant events and among them the III
International Satellite Navigation Forum takes a notable place. The
Forum is of great importance not only for scientists and engineers
involved in the creation and development of satellite navigation
technologies, but also for the broad circle of experts in various
sectors of the economy. Since 2007, after a number of leading
Russian enterprises of the radio-electronic complex developing and
manufacturing the equipment of coordinate and time support entered into
OJSC “Concern PVO “Almaz-Antey”, the Concern has actively joined in the
process of the organization of works to create modern navigation
equipment, has defined ways and tendencies of the development of this
industry. Undoubtedly, the Concern could not stand aside from so
significant event like the III International Satellite Navigation Forum
and has acted as its General sponsor. The Concern gives not only
material support to this event. The program of the Forum provides for
participation of some companies from among these entering into the
cooperation of the Concern with the cycle of reports during the plenary
session and sections.
The Concern gives great attention to the development and broad
introduction of satellite navigation technologies into the national
economy and the defense industry of the country. The big work on the
integration of the industrial, research organizations and commercial
firms to create modern competitive domestic navigation equipment and
systems on its basis for use in various sectors of the economy is being
carried out. The achievements of the Russian industry in this field
will be presented at the stand of OJSC “Concern PVO “Almaz-Antey”
during the exhibition to be held in the framework of the Forum.
The broad use of satellite navigation technologies can allow cutting
considerably expenses in transport and construction, in the fuel-energy
complex, which is especially actual in the conditions of the crisis, to
ensue the safety of flights of aircrafts and navigation. Possibilities
of system GLONASS must be actively introduced into the economy of
Russia.
I hope that the Forum will be fruitful, and the made decisions will
promote the further large-scale development of navigation services in
Russia. I wish all its participants health and success in the
realization of the plans.

About the Forum
The EXPOCENTRE FAIRGROUNDS will, for the first time,
be the venue for the year’s two major satellite navigation events held
as part of the 2009 Navigation Systems, Technologies and Services
International Congress and Exhibition Project:
The 3rd International Satellite Navigation Forum 2009
will host plenary meetings and workshops bringing together leading
experts in the area of satellite navigation and cellular network
positioning, as well as hardware and software developers;
Navitech-Expo’2009 Navigation Systems, Technologies and Services International Exhibition.
The main goal of the project is to inform a wide audience in Russia and
abroad about satellite navigation innovations. The participants will be
given detailed information on cellular network positioning services and
technologies, on various industrial applications and subscriber
equipment developed by leading Russian and foreign companies and on the
experience of the top Russian companies. The Forum will put special
emphasis on the Russian GLONASS navigation system and various aspects
of its use in Russia.
The
Forum will allow a wide range of issues concerning application of
navigation services in Russia and abroad to be addressed, namely:
• GLONASS, GPS and GALILEO; status and prospects
• The current situation and outlook with respect to the satellite and mobile positioning market;
• Legal aspects of the use of satellite navigation systems in Russia;
• New and highly remunerative types of business involving satellite navigation technologies;
• Positive experience of leading Russian and foreign companies using satellite navigation for their business needs
The 2009 International Satellite Navigation Forum programme targets end
users of satellite navigation and covers all aspects of its successful
commercial application in Russia. The programme’s authors have taken
into account the experience of previous years and recommendations made
by participants.
