In addition, the Beidou system has also assisted oil companies in achieving real-time monitoring of personnel and vehicles, optimizing production scheduling and resource management, reducing operating costs, and enhancing the competitiveness of enterprises.
Express logistics field
In the field of express logistics, the integration of Beidou based mobile terminal applications with Wi Fi and base station "three in one" positioning technology has brought revolutionary changes to the express logistics industry. During customer ordering, intelligent scheduling, transit sorting, transportation planning, and final delivery, the Beidou system can make autonomous decisions and accurately deliver packages to buildings and units with an accuracy rate of nearly 99%. This greatly improves the delivery efficiency of express delivery, shortens delivery time, and enhances customer satisfaction. At the same time, the Beidou system also provides services such as vehicle management and cargo tracking for logistics enterprises, helping them optimize their logistics networks, reduce operating costs, and achieve efficient allocation of logistics resources.
energy industry
The integration of Beidou and artificial intelligence technology has been widely applied in various fields of the energy industry, promoting the transformation of the energy industry towards intelligence. In the field of intelligent coal, Beidou high-precision positioning is used for drilling rig drilling and slope displacement monitoring, improving the safety and efficiency of coal mining. In the field of intelligent oil and gas, the Beidou system provides accurate data support for monitoring oil and gas pipelines, managing oil and gas wells, and ensuring the safe extraction and transportation of oil and gas resources. In the field of smart grid, the Beidou system is applied to the positioning, monitoring, and maintenance of power equipment, improving the operational efficiency and reliability of the power grid. In the field of intelligent power generation, the Beidou system has assisted power generation enterprises in achieving remote monitoring and intelligent scheduling of power generation equipment, optimizing the allocation of power generation resources, and reducing power generation costs.
In the field of mass consumption
The effectiveness of Beidou's mass application is also outstanding. Since the system was launched, mainstream smartphone manufacturers at home and abroad, including Huawei, Xiaomi, Apple, etc., have all supported Beidou. Beidou is becoming a standard configuration for positioning functions in mass consumer products such as smartphones, watches, and other wearable devices. In 2022, a total of 260 million newly connected smartphones in China will support the shipment of Beidou, accounting for 98.5%. The high-precision lane level navigation function based on Beidou has been successfully piloted in 8 cities in China and is planned to be popularized nationwide in the future. In addition, special service functions such as "location query," "green light navigation," and "shared location reporting for safety" have been applied to public transportation. As of January 2024, the daily positioning volume of well-known domestic maps using Beidou satellites exceeds 300 billion times. The Beidou system provides more accurate and convenient navigation services for public travel, enhancing people's travel experience.
International scale application
The application modes of Beidou are becoming more diverse, and the application fields are constantly expanding. Beidou products, technologies, and services have gained recognition from more international users. Beidou is widely used in various industries in countries such as Mozambique, Lebanon, Burkina Faso, and Saudi Arabia. In Asia, the deformation monitoring of the Sarez Lake dam, the connection of the China Kyrgyzstan Uzbekistan highway, the transportation of the China Kazakhstan crude oil pipeline, and the daily operation of the China Europe freight train have all played important roles in the high-precision positioning of Beidou. The Beidou system provides high-quality positioning services for global users, enhances China's influence in the field of global navigation and positioning, and promotes the international development of the Beidou system.
