Space Applications Learning Hub: Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT)
Course (Online) by Royal Institute of Navigation (RIN), Space Professionals, Geospatial Ventures Limited, and Space Skills Alliance · Free
This course is part of the wider Space Applications Learning Hub (SALHUB) training courses which will deliver expert-led training modules in systems engineering, data/artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) and commercial operations across positioning, navigation and timing (PNT), Earth observation (EO/GIS) and satellite communications (SatComms). PNT enables all aspects of everyday life, from smartphone apps to enabling critical infrastructure such as communications and power networks. PNT is a growing area and our courses are designed for anyone considering moving into a sector using PNT, anyone who has just made that move, or indeed those wanting new insights and to deepen PNT skills. Courses will be offered at foundation and intermediate level. The foundation courses will provide a vital bedrock of awareness and knowledge needed by everyone involved in using or specifying positioning or timing as part of a system or application. Intermediate level courses go deeper, into system engineering design, data analytics for PNT systems and how to interpret and apply PNT data, including use of AI/ML techniques. This course will address how to write positioning and timing system specifications for any use case, best practices for resilient PNT, a review of data sources, types of data and outputs from positioning and timing systems, interpretation and analysis of PNT data and a special module on timing. There will be modules on bringing everything together into a system-of-systems capable of performing resiliently. We will also cover how to track and maintain performance for your use case, flagging issues and how to plan to address them.
