Geopositioning hasn’t stopped growing and reaching new sectors and uses. Be at the forefront of a booming market by taking this TECH program”

This Postgraduate certificate in Geopositioning addresses, in the first instance, the movements of the earth. These model the ability to obtain, through different systems, the position of any object of interest in a given time, defining the reference systems and their reference frames.

Likewise, it delves into the different positioning mechanisms, with emphasis on GNSS and mobile positioning systems, their operation and the physical foundations on which they are based, both of which are the most widespread today.

Regarding GNSS Positioning, it develops the different possible observation methods in addition to the precise point positioning or by its acronym "PPP". It also examines the GALILEO constellation, developed and put into operation by the European Space Agency (ESA), identifying the phases of implementation, commissioning, characteristics and advantages over existing systems.

All this, condensed in a program that stands out for its 100% online modality, for the quality of its contents and for the excellence of its highly specialized teaching staff. All this is what positions this program as the most useful and effective academic option in today's teaching landscape.
