Efforts to improve terrestrial GPS are to be expected – also to be expected is that these will only progress, as time goes on. But, software for marine navigation still needs improvement. If you choose to improve the existing tech in this sector, you’ll be opening up to a new market. The competition isn’t light, and every manufacturer wants to gain an edge over the other, but it’s not the most technical application that always wins. As you can see with Waze’s success, practicality beats almost everything.
In commercial marine trade, technology isn’t just a tool to complete jobs. If the current developments in the field signify anything, it’s that GPS will play a bigger role: contacting emergency services, ensuring trade safety and improving commerce, to name a few things. Developing a viable GPS product means you’ll enter the market leveraging the industry’s biggest needs –but that’s a big undertaking. You’ll need the best tools, and most likely, take to the field to learn the intricacies.
