Martographers

Mars' leader in Global Positioning

"If you're on Mars, we'll find you!"


 

Organized in the fall of 2008, Martographers is currently in development for the first ever Global Positioning System on the Red Planet. Orbiting satellites will be able triangulate the position of a GPS receiver anywhere on the surface of Mars. At any point in time, at any location on Mars, at least four satellites will be in sight to determine your coordinates.

Recently awarded a Phase I small-business innovative research grant by NASA, we are competing with five other companies for a Phase II contact dependent on the cost, practicality, and functionality of the Phase I design.

Our belief is that there is no substitute for the aptitude, fortitude, and exactitude, at any latitude and longitude, of these five dudes.
