AUSTIN, Texas, April 27, 2026
‍
Nordian, an Austin, Texas-based technology company and the operator of South America’s largest PPP-RTK GNSS reference network, today announced the formal expansion of the PointPerfect GNSS correction service into Brazil, in partnership with u-blox (SIX: UBXN), a globally recognized leader in positioning and wireless communication technology. The milestone marks a defining moment in Nordian’s mission to make centimeter-level positioning accuracy accessible, affordable, and reliable across every corner of South America.

Brazil represents one of the most consequential opportunities in the global precision positioning market, driven by its vast agricultural sector, rapidly expanding logistics infrastructure, and growing appetite for automation and smart mobility. By combining Nordian’s regional expertise and extensive ground network with u-blox’s industry-leading PointPerfect correction platform, the two companies are positioned to deliver an unmatched positioning solution to Brazilian enterprises and developers.

‍A Strategic Alliance Built for Regional Impact
‍Nordian’s collaboration with u-blox brings together two organizations with complementary strengths: Nordian’s deep, on-the-ground knowledge of the South American market and its proprietary GNSS reference station infrastructure, combined with u-blox’s globally deployed PointPerfect correction service. The result is a solution specifically suited to the demands of Brazilian industry, where scale, reliability, and cost-efficiency are non-negotiable.

‍"Nordian brings unparalleled experience in delivering and supporting advanced, centimeter-level GNSS correction services across South America," said Carlos Agusti, Sales Director at Nordian. "Our collaboration with u-blox further accelerates our commitment to pushing the frontiers of precise positioning technology in the region."

Michael Schramm, CEO of Nordian, added: "Combining u-blox’s PointPerfect service with Nordian’s extensive GNSS reference network and regional expertise gives our customers a level of reliability, quality, and affordability that no other provider can match in this market."

PointPerfect: Precision Without Compromise
‍The PointPerfect GNSS correction service delivers centimeter-level positioning accuracy with convergence times measured in seconds, not minutes. Operating at 99.9% uptime reliability, the service provides continuous, continent-scale coverage through a broadcast architecture that eliminates the per-site infrastructure dependencies typical of conventional RTK networks.

A key differentiator driving the service’s suitability for the Brazilian market is PointPerfect’s Localized Distribution feature, which consumes approximately 90 percent less data than conventional network RTK solutions. This dramatic reduction in bandwidth requirements translates directly into lower operating costs for end users, a critical advantage in regions where cellular data costs remain a significant commercial consideration.

The service is offered through flexible subscription plans designed to accommodate businesses at varying scales, ensuring that both precision agriculture operators managing thousands of hectares and emerging mobility startups alike can access the same quality of positioning data.

‍Addressing Brazil’s High-Value Positioning Markets
‍Brazil’s position as one of the world’s foremost agricultural producers makes it a natural and immediate target market for high-precision GNSS technology. Precision agriculture applications including autonomous tractor guidance, variable-rate input management, and yield mapping demand sub-decimeter positioning accuracy to deliver meaningful efficiency gains. PointPerfect, as distributed through Nordian’s local infrastructure and expertise, provides exactly this capability at a scale and cost structure previously unavailable in the Brazilian market.

Beyond agriculture, the expanded service addresses a broad spectrum of high-growth sectors. These include industrial and service robotics, construction and infrastructure automation, micromobility and shared transportation platforms, and advanced automotive applications such as lane-accurate navigation and fleet telematics. As Brazil’s digital economy continues to mature, the demand for affordable, high-precision positioning across all of these verticals is expected to accelerate significantly.

‍"Entering the Brazilian market together with Nordian marks a pivotal expansion into South America and represents a further step in our strategy to globalize the PointPerfect service," said Ari Kuukka, Principal Product Owner, Product Center Services at u-blox. "PointPerfect is the ideal solution to address the growing need for high-precision GNSS technology in applications such as autonomous farming."

‍Nordian’s Infrastructure Advantage in South America
‍As the owner and operator of South America’s largest PPP-RTK GNSS reference network, Nordian brings an infrastructure foundation to this partnership that no regional competitor can replicate. The company’s reference station network has been purpose-built to deliver continuous, high-integrity correction data across challenging and diverse terrain, from tropical lowlands to high-altitude agricultural regions.

This infrastructure, combined with Nordian’s established relationships with regional systems integrators, hardware distributors, and enterprise customers, provides u-blox’s PointPerfect service with an immediate and credible route to market in Brazil. Customers benefit not only from world-class positioning technology but also from Nordian’s dedicated local technical support and service continuity guarantees.

‍Looking Ahead: A Platform for Continued Growth
‍The expansion of PointPerfect into Brazil is a foundational step in a broader strategy that Nordian and u-blox are pursuing across South America. The flexibility of PointPerfect’s service architecture and its compatibility with a wide range of u-blox hardware modules mean that solution providers in Brazil can integrate precise positioning into their products without redesigning their existing platforms. This low-friction adoption path is expected to accelerate market uptake across all targeted verticals.

Nordian views this partnership as a long-term commitment to the Brazilian technology ecosystem, with plans to expand support capabilities, deepen reference network coverage, and develop market-specific service packages tailored to the needs of Brazilian enterprise customers in the years ahead.
