Why GNSS positioning is critical for success

Autonomous driving (AD) and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) rely on information about the vehicle’s position and surroundings from multiple sources. GNSS provides absolute positioning coordinates, and other sensors provide positioning relative to other objects.
