DDK Positioning – Innovative positioning technology

GNSS data finds applications in many areas, for instance in the agriculture, maritime or critical infrastructure domain. The benefits and application possibilities of location data are endless. But, those applications can only work as accurately as the data they are being fed with. DDK Positioning therefore offers a GNSS augmentation service that enhances the many benefits of using GNSS location data by significantly increasing accuracy, availability and reliability. Their product allows for the management of communication outages for 10 minutes. Moreover, the start-up is the only provider on the market that offers truly independent and global services, which

makes them stand-out from competitors. DDK Positioning achieve independence through the use of Iridium’s satellite network. The satellite telecommunications giant has already recognised the potential that DDK Positioning offers and has made a strategic investment into the start-up in May 2021. Iridium has grounded their interest in the expected potential of augmentation services since they are projected to account for €65 billion in global GNSS market revenue by 2029. Apart from this big vote of confidence, the DDK positioning solution has proven as being robust and resilient and has shown to improve accuracy to less than 5cm. Furthermore, DDK Positioning is especially suited to provide reliable services in areas on sea and land where no LTE network exists.

DDK Positioning offers a product as well as a service. Their hardware product consists of an integrated mobile receiver that is able to receive their augmented data exclusively through the Iridium satellite communications network. The product was initially built using only GPS and Galileo, however, they have now established a solution with access to a multi constellation GNSS positioning network. Galileo plays an integral part in this network, as it has increased the accuracy of the service significantly. In order to process all available GNSS constellations, they use GNSS receivers and antennas.

The highly skilled team of DDK Positioning consists of 13 people who are all eager to work together with the client in order to find individual solutions that suit them best. With every team member having at least 15 years of experience in their respective field, DDK Positioning has a strong business, finance, and project management skill set to draw on. Not to mention, that they provide extensive experience in developing, making and using GNSS systems and GNSS augmentation systems globally!
