Satellite-based GNSS Augmentation System Market size was over USD 11.37 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to cross USD 26.42 billion by 2037, witnessing more than 6.7% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of satellite-based GNSS augmentation system is estimated at USD 12.62 billion.
GNSS or Global Navigation Satellite System provides positioning, navigation and timing services on a global or regional basis. Market growth is primarily driven by constant breakthroughs and advancements in technologies such as GPS systems. Moreover, increasing investment by governments and private institutions in developing advanced satellite-based services is estimated to further drive the market growth. According to the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA), the International Navigation Systems Commission (ICG) is working to establish interoperability between global systems. It allows GNSS users to receive signals from multiple satellites for navigation and positioning. Moreover, rising security concerns related to civil aviation may also boost the market growth.
GNSS augmentation systems use a combination of ground-based and space-based infrastructure to improve the accuracy, integrity, availability, and continuity of GNSS signals. They may employ techniques such as differential correction, precise point positioning, and real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning to reduce errors and improve positioning accuracy to centimeter-level or even millimeter-level. The market includes various components, such as ground-based reference stations, communication links, processing centers, and user receivers, as well as related software and services.
It is a method of improving navigation system characteristics such as accuracy, reliability, and availability by integrating extended external information from the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) into the calculation process. There are many such systems, and they are commonly named or described based on how the GNSS sensors receive external information. Some systems transmit additional information about the cause of the error (clock drift, ephemeris, ionospheric delay, and others), others provide a direct measurement of how strong the signal has failed in the past, and a third Groups provide additional vehicle information that is integrated into the calculation. Satellite-based augmentation systems (SBAS) use supplemental satellite broadcast messages to support long-range or regional augmentation. Using the measurements from the ground station, a correction message is created and sent to one or more satellites for transmission to the end user as a difference signal. SBAS is sometimes synonymous with WADGPS (Wide-Area Differential GPS).
In addition to this, cloud-based digital services have grown worldwide over the years. For instance, cloud-based services are expected to grow by 30% in 2023 and are estimated to grow even more during the forecast period. Hence, it is also estimated to boost the global satellite-based GNSS augmentation system market growth significantly during the forecast period.

Application (Aviation, Maritime, Road & Rail)
The global satellite-based GNSS augmentation system market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by application into aviation, maritime, road & rail, and others. Out of the four types of applications, the aviation segment is estimated to gain the largest market share of about 35% in the year 2037. The growth of the segment can be accredited to the increasing application of GNSS to navigation between aircraft and achieving high efficiency in GNSS systems around the world. Moreover, the increase in the number of passengers in air transport is expected to increase the frequency of air travel, which is estimated to further drive the growth of this segment. In November 2022, the number of international scheduled passengers was 2,315,000. International passenger transport continues to be severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The number of passengers in November 2021 is 156,211, and the number of passengers in November 2019 is 3.426 million. The number of passengers in the fiscal period ended November 2022 was 16,681,000, down 60.7% from the fiscal period ended November 2019 (42,420,000). In November 2021, the number of passengers was 1,234,000. A total of 2,795,000 seats are now available on scheduled international flights to and from Australia scheduled for November 2022. This is an increase of 36.0 compared to November 2019. Overall seat occupancy was 80.6% in November 2019 and 24.9% in November 2019. By November 2022, it had risen to 85.5%.
Platform {Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS), European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)}
The global satellite-based GNSS augmentation system market is also segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by platform into wide area augmentation system (WAAS), European geostationary navigation overlay service (EGNOS), and others. Amongst these three segments, the oral film segment is expected to garner a significant share of around 30% in the year 2037. The growth of the segment can be accredited to the fact that the main advantage of WAAS is that it greatly improves accuracy. Conventional GPS is accurate to within 15 meters (about 50 feet). A WAAS-enabled GPS has an accuracy of less than 3 meters 95% of the time. WAAS serves all aircraft classes during all phases of flight, including in-flight navigation, departure and airport arrival. This includes a vertical guided landing approach under instrument weather conditions at all certified locations throughout NAS. WAAS is a highly accurate navigation system developed for civil aviation. Before WAAS, it was the United States. The National Airspace System (NAS) never had the potential to provide horizontal and vertical navigation for approach operations to all users in all locations. WAAS provides this functionality. Increasing number of artificial satellites is estimated to influence the segmental growth. As of January 1, 2022, 2,944 of the 4,852 active artificial satellites orbiting the Earth belong to the United States. This is by far the largest number among individual countries, with closest competitor China accounting for just 499. A satellite is an artificial object that is intentionally placed into orbit.
