Since the advent of GPS in the early 1970’s, there’s been a virtual revolution in PNT technology and applications. Today, PNT services are used by over 3 billion users—half the world’s population!
Starting with the adaptation of GPS technology for precision spacecraft attitude and guidance control in the 1990s, Stanford has been widely considered the world’s leading academic institution performing PNT, GPS and GNSS research.
In 2006, the SCPNT was created to bring industry affiliate support for pioneering PNT research projects and to facilitate an international forum (by way of the annual SCPNT Symposium) for exchanging ideas, addressing issues and promoting the advancement of PNT technologies and applications.
2018 Annual PNT Symposium
Our 2018 PNT Symposium will be held on November 7- 8 in the Kavli Auditorium at SLAC, about 3.5 miles west of the Stanford campus off Sand Hill Road. This year's symposium is dedicated to the memory of SCPNT Director, Per Enge, who passed away on April 22, 2018. The symposium program will conclude with reflections on Per Enge in the afternoon on November 8th.
