What’s new: A posting by RNT Foundation member organization Frontier SI discussing resilient PNT generally and examining the need and case for Australia.

Why it’s important: Australia is an excellent example of a developed country still coming to grips with its over-dependence on GNSS. 

What else to know: 

  • Australia’s relative physical isolation (distance from many other developed nations) makes the question of how to achieve PNT resilience and sovereignty perhaps even more urgent that it might be for others.
  • The UK, France, Republic of Korea (South Korea), Saudi Arabia, Russia, and China have all taken steps to ensure PNT resilience and sovereignty.

Resilient PNT Needs More Than Satellites

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.
