BeiDou Navigation Satellite System
China Satellite Navigation Office
The China-developed BeiDou Navigation Satellite System is one of the world's four major suppliers of global satellite navigation data. It has been open to global users since 2020, providing them with round-the-clock, all-weather high-accuracy positioning, navigation and timing services.
Currently, more than half of the countries and regions in the world are using the BDS and more people are enjoying a convenient, efficient, precise and safe life as a result.
Over 30 African countries are using the BDS. In Mozambique, the use of drones deploying the BDS has greatly improved the efficiency of plant protection. In Burkina Faso, the BDS helped reduce by half the time required to survey and map for a new hospital, which later played an important role in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases.
In Asia, the BDS is being utilized in projects such as the Usoi Dam in Sarez Lake in Tajikistan, the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan highway, the China-Kazakhstan crude oil pipeline and aboard China-Europe freight trains.
In addition, the BDS is widely used in Arab and ASEAN countries for agricultural production, urban governance, as well as wildlife protection.
The World Internet Conference (WIC) was established as an international organization on July 12, 2022, headquartered in Beijing, China. It was jointly initiated by Global System for Mobile Communication Association (GSMA), National Computer Network Emergency Response Technical Team/Coordination Center of China (CNCERT), China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC), Alibaba Group, Tencent, and Zhijiang Lab.
