Chinanews, Nanchang, May 26 (Li Yunhan, Liu Zhankun, Liu Lixin) On the 26th, the 12th China Satellite Navigation Annual Conference with the theme of "Space-time Data, Empowering the Future" opened in Nanchang, Jiangxi. This year’s conference is Beidou Satellite The first annual meeting of the navigation system to start a new journey of globalization and industrialization will focus on continuing to promote the high-quality development of the Beidou system.

  The Beidou system is a global satellite navigation system built and operated independently by China, compatible with other satellite navigation systems in the world.

On July 31 last year, the Beidou-3 global satellite navigation system was officially completed and opened, marking that Beidou system has entered a new era of global service in an all-round way.

  "Satellite navigation is a more convenient means to obtain time and space information, with more powerful functions and more prominent functions. Mastering time and space and controlling position are no longer an unreachable ideal, but is becoming a reality at hand." China Beidou satellite navigation Yang Changfeng, chief designer of systems engineering, said that because of the acquisition of temporal and spatial information, our survival guarantee is more solid; because of the empowerment of temporal and spatial information, our quality of life has been improved.

  He Yubin, chairman of the China Satellite Navigation System Committee, revealed at the opening ceremony that the Beidou system has initially established an operation and management system with Chinese characteristics. The actual measurement shows that the system is operating continuously and stably and is at the world's advanced level.

In 2020, the total output value of China's satellite navigation industry will exceed 400 billion yuan.

At the same time, China's satellite navigation overseas business has accelerated and has been applied in more than 120 countries and regions around the world.

  A reporter from Chinanews.com learned from the opening ceremony that it is expected that by the end of the 14th Five-Year Plan period, China's overall output value of satellite navigation and location services will double, breaking through the trillion yuan mark, and quadruple the global market share.
