GPS-independent positioning
for confident agriculture
Stable navigation. Precise work. Greater yields.
Columbus is a positioning system that operates without GPS and provides stable, precise navigation under jamming, spoofing, and loss of satellite signal.
It integrates with AGAT autonomous machinery-control systems and enhances their capabilities.
