The full completion of the Beidou Navigation Satellite System has become a unique milestone in the history of China's scientific and technological progress. Since it was first launched in 1994, after 26 years of perseverance, the Beidou system has won a competitive advantage in the field of global satellite navigation systems.
This remarkable achievement has had a profound and wide-ranging impact on the economy, and the specific impact is reflected in the following aspects.
The Beidou system brings all-weather, all-time and space-time, high-precision positioning, navigation and timing services to China. By 2020, more than 200 countries and regions around the world, and more than 100 industries, including agriculture, fishery, logistics, transportation, etc., rely on the services of the Beidou system.
The Beidou system is a leading satellite navigation system in China, which provides a solid backing for China's economic development. For example, in the field of agriculture, the Beidou system can provide farmland irrigation, planting management, meteorological early warning and other services to help farmers improve the output and quality of crops, thereby promoting the process of agricultural modernization.
In the field of logistics and transportation, the precise positioning service of the Beidou system can realize vehicle scheduling and cargo tracking, improve logistics efficiency, reduce time costs, and save a lot of resources and costs for enterprises.
The application of the Beidou system in the global economy has had a profound and extensive impact. Data shows that three-quarters of China's smartphones use the Beidou satellite navigation system.
The high-precision positioning service of the system provides more accurate and reliable positioning functions for the application of smart phone APP, so as to provide users with more convenient life services. For example, ride-hailing software can find the user's location more accurately, and courier software can deliver goods more reliably.
As a global satellite navigation system independently developed by China, the Beidou system has shown commendable performance in terms of technological maturity and market competitiveness. The main feature of the system is that it is the world's first satellite navigation system to provide tri-frequency signal services.
This technological breakthrough greatly negates the effects of higher-order ionospheric delays, thereby further improving the accuracy and credibility of positioning. The data shows that the positioning accuracy of the Beidou system is better than 5 meters.
In the Asia-Pacific region, the Beidou system performs better, thus providing it with a clear competitive advantage in positioning services.
In terms of economic benefits, the implementation of the Beidou system plays a significant role in promoting China's economic growth. According to the report of the Development Research Center, it can promote China's economic growth by at least 01 percentage point, bringing more than 1 trillion yuan of economic benefits to the country every year.
The Beidou system provides refined positioning services, covering agriculture, fishery, transportation, logistics, even finance, telecommunications and other industries, which can benefit from it. For example, in agriculture, the application of Beidou can improve land use efficiency, improve the yield and quality of crops, and thus help increase the output value of agriculture.
In the transportation industry, the vehicle positioning and navigation functions of the Beidou system can improve the safety and efficiency of transportation, which provides strong support for the strong development of China's economy.
Paragraph 3].
The rapid rise of the Beidou Navigation Satellite System has injected new vitality into China's economic construction, especially in the field of transportation. According to the latest data released by China's Ministry of Transport, by 2024, more than 10 million vehicles in China have used Beidou navigation terminals, and the application of these terminals not only improves the precise positioning and navigation capabilities of cars, but also enables traffic management departments to monitor and command in real time, just like installing a panoramic "eye" for them.
By using the Beidou system, the traffic management department can grasp the traffic situation in real time, flexibly adjust the route and signal lights, and thus improve the efficiency of traffic operation. In addition, the Beidou system is also widely used in ships, aviation and railways, which greatly improves the safety and efficiency of China's transportation.
Fourth paragraph].
In promoting agricultural modernization, the Beidou satellite navigation system has played a major role. According to statistics from China's Ministry of Agriculture, by 2024, the advanced Beidou system has covered more than 20 million mu of farmland in China, enabling farmers to understand key information such as soil moisture, temperature, and light in real time through the Beidou navigation terminal, so as to formulate more accurate agricultural production plans.
The precision agricultural machinery operation services provided by the Beidou system have greatly improved the production efficiency of agriculture. By connecting with the Beidou navigation system, agricultural machinery can realize modern agricultural operations such as autonomous driving, precision seeding, and precision fertilization, which significantly improves the quality and output value of agricultural products.
Paragraph 5].
The rapid development of the Beidou Navigation Satellite System has promoted the prosperity of the digital economy. This is reported by China's National Development and Reform Commission.
