Abstract :
A new age in position, location, and navigation has arrived, and PLANS ´94 is where engineers from all over the world came to evaluate systems and predict the future. Topics ranged from mapping ice in Greenland to landing passenger-carrying airplanes in Category III weather. PLANS ´94, sponsored by IEEE-AESS was held in Las Vegas, Nevada, with 400 engineers attending 27 technical sessions in which 140 papers were presented. General Chairman of the conference was Thomas A. Stansell, Jr., and the program chairman was Michael J. Hadfield.<>
