THS:UKI Scotland Branch Event – The War on Position

The War on Position: Finding Truth in a Spoofed World

In an era where navigation underpins everything from survey vessels to everyday smartphones, the integrity of positioning systems has never been more critical – or more vulnerable. THS:UKI Scotland Branch is excited to announce our May Evening Event, where we will dive into the escalating battle against GNSS, where signals can be manipulated, disrupted, or entirely fabricated.

 Join industry experts as they unpack real-world case studies, cutting-edge detection techniques, and the evolving strategies used to safeguard positioning, navigation, and timing systems. Whether you’re a surveyor, engineer, or simply curious about the invisible infrastructure guiding our world, this session will challenge what you think you know about “truth” in navigation.
