GPS Market Size Worth $146.4 Billion By 2025

The global positioning systems (GPS) market size is anticipated to reach USD 146.4 billion by 2025, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc., exhibiting a CAGR of 18.4% during the forecast period. Burgeoning popularity of location-based services such as online food delivery and e-hailing services are projected to create significant demand for GPS-enabled devices over the forecast period. Furthermore, increasing use of GPS devices for navigation purposes in military aircraft and navy ships is poised to propel the market.

Global positioning systems are satellite-based navigation systems that provide real-time location of objects. GPS is widely used in a variety of civil applications, including road transportation, shipping, rail transportation, heavy vehicle guidance, surveying and mapping, social activities, and financial services. GPS transmitters use data to provide exact location of the object. Moreover, a GPS can work in any weather condition that makes it more versatile and reliable.

Among all application segments, the location-based services and road segments are expected to be significant revenue contributors in the global market during the forecast period owing to increasing deployment of GPS technology in smartphones, tablets, networking devices, IoT devices, and connected vehicles. Rising adoption of smartphones and growing consumer inclination towards digital services such as online retailing, cab services, and food at door steps are likely to spur the growth of the market during the forecast period.

In addition, increasing investments by large market players in developing countries such as China, India and Indonesia are expected to boost overall adoption through partnership with local suppliers. This will help the Asia Pacific market to gain traction over the coming years. However, lack of network infrastructure and  lack of awareness of GPS technology among large population are estimated to hinder the growth of the market over the forecast period.

  • North America accounted for the largest market share in 2017 followed by Europe, owing to a large number of smartphone users, high demand for GPS devices for connected fleets, and presence of key market players
  • The Asia Pacific GPS market is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period on account of increasing per capita expenditure, growing economy, and high adoption of smartphones
  • The location-based services application segment accounted for over 41.0% of the global GPS market in 2017 owing to a surge in the demand for GPS devices for navigation and travel, retail and real estate searches, geo-social networking, and mobile marketing and advertising purposes
  • Prominent market players are focusing on undertaking mergers and acquisitions with system integrators to increase their overall revenue share. Additionally, key players are continually  investing in development of new products to gain a higher market share and increase their overall profitability
  • Military expenditure by governments of countries such as the U.S., Russia, China, India, and Saudi Arabia is projected to rise significantly, thus fueling the growth of the global GPS market over the forecast period.

Geospatial Analytics Market Size Worth $134.48 Billion By 2025

The global geospatial analytics market size is expected to reach USD 134,479.7 million by 2025, registering a CAGR of 15.0% from 2019 to 2025, according to a new study conducted by Grand View Research, Inc. Numerous innovations and advancements in the drone technology and increasing deployment of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for remotely monitoring and gathering a large number of location data with minimal human intervention are likely to unfold new opportunities for market growth. Additionally, the increasing use of GPS-enabled smartphones and devices is also anticipated to drive market growth.

Increasing smart city initiatives have resulted in the growing need for innovative technologies for use in 3D urban mapping; monitoring and mapping natural resources, agriculture, and utilities; and disaster management. In case of natural disasters, location-based analytics enables decision makers to take suitable actions. Moreover, major oil & gas companies across the globe are increasingly deploying geospatial analytics solutions to discover potential crude oil and natural gas deposits and to monitor their vast pipeline network.

The use of geospatial technologies in the automotive industry is increasing owing to the growing safety concerns among passengers. According to data released by the U.S. Census Bureau, about 85.7 percent of the U.S. employees above 16 years of age commute to work in a van, car, or truck, either by driving alone or via carpooling. With around 125 million people traveling by road every day, the U.S. transportation system faces numerous challenges such as congested highways and fatal vehicle collisions.

As per the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, it is estimated that on an average, 102 people die from vehicle accidents every day. In an attempt to address this, automotive manufacturers are focusing on implementing technologies such as IoT and location-based services in vehicles to make driving safer and easier. The commercialization of upcoming autonomous vehicles also heavily relies on the integration of Geographic Information Science (GIS) and advanced geospatial technology.
