GPS Market: Key Drivers and Challenges
The growing investment in satellite deployment is notably driving the global positioning systems market growth, although factors such as connectivity issues with GPS may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the GPS industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key GPS Market Driver
The GPS is integrated within vehicles or assets. It allows vehicle owners or fleet managers to monitor and track the movement of vehicles. They use both satellite and cellular signals to communicate location-related information. This is achieved by using a network of satellites to determine the location of a device. The trackers use trilateration to determine the physical location based on their distance from three GPS satellites. After determining the location, they transmit the information to owners or fleet managers using cellular networks such as LTE or 3G. The global GPS market is observing a significant investment in the deployment of new satellites. The growing deployment of these satellites increases the network coverage area and strengthens the communication signals. Such deployment introduces GPS tracking facilities in new geographic locations as well as improves services for existing users. This will increase the adoption of GPS and, in turn, drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Key GPS Market Challenge
The GPS uses both satellite and cellular communication network infrastructure. It calculates location-, speed-, and direction-related data using multiple GPS satellites and transmits the data via a cellular network. However, to properly track the assets integrated with GPS, a high-speed Internet connection is required. Though many countries such as the US, the UK, and Japan have advanced Internet infrastructure, other countries have poor Internet connectivity or lack basic Internet connectivity. In suburban areas and highways, cellular connectivity is weak in some of the developing countries. Some of the mining locations are in remote locations with no cellular connectivity. Remote tracking of cargo containers carried through railways is difficult with weak cellular connections. These situations lead to latency in vehicles and asset tracking, which creates a poor customer experience, especially in real-time tracking solutions. Therefore, connectivity issues due to the lack of proper communication network infrastructure are hindering the growth of the market.
