2006 Media Kit INTRODUCING . A mAgAzine for the globAl nAvigAtion sAtellite system community. Space-based positioning, navigation, and timing — the technological core of global navigation satellite systems— demand a knowledge-based business model, operated by people who know what they’re doing. That goes for GNSS publishing as much as for GNSS manufacturing, services, and engineering. Unlike the average trade journal, we can’t dismiss a GNSS publication’s content as “not rocket science.” GNSS is rocket science! It is also radio science and geodesy and electronic engineering. Physics and politics. Programs, personalities, institutions, and budgets. Public agencies and private business. Product design and system integration. Digital signal processing and market development. And much more, on a global scale. Above all, GNSS is a utility and a community, reaching across professional, technological, and national boundaries. And that’s what Inside GNSS is all about: a new magazine covering the policies, programs, engineering, and most challenging applications of GPS, Galileo, GLONASS and related technologies. The magazine will be presented to a carefully selected international audience of 40,000 product designers, system integrators, technical managers, manufacturers and service providers as well as military, government and corporate procurement professionals. Our distribution, the largest of any GNSS publication, will target readers in the following regions: North America (45%), Europe (27%), Asia-Pacific (20%) and the rest of the world (8%). I have lived inside the GNSS world for 16 years and understand it well. I am confident that Inside GNSS will give you the tools, the knowledge, the connections, and the context you need to build even more successful enterprises.
