navigationsdata
Navigationsdata refers to the set of information used to determine a system's position, orientation, and trajectory, and to support route planning and maneuvering. It encompasses dynamic data such as coordinates, velocity, heading, and timing, as well as static elements like maps and route plans. The term is used across transportation and mobility contexts, including maritime, aviation, automotive, and handheld devices.
Core components include positioning data from global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), inertial data from accelerometers and
Data sources range from satellite signals and onboard sensors to external services such as online maps, traffic
Applications span autopilot and guidance systems in ships and aircraft, automotive navigation and driver-assistance systems, drones,
Quality and risk considerations include accuracy, latency, availability, and data integrity. GNSS can be degraded by
