GPS AIDED GEO AUGMENTED NAVIGATION
Highway tolls to use satellite-based technology soon; Here's how it works and other details?
India is set to introduce a new satellite-based toll collection system, a global first. Using GNSS and GPS, this system charges vehicles based on the distance traveled, eliminating toll plazas and improving the commuter experience. Unlike FASTag, it operates on the Global Navigation Satellite System, offering precise tracking. This innovation aims to modernize toll collection, potentially increasing revenue to Rs 1.40 trillion in the next few years. Despite challenges, such as infrastructure upgrades, this system signals a significant advancement in India's transportation sector.
