“The mission of resilient navigation and timing foundation is to promote wide area resilient navigation and timing ("rnt") worldwide. (note this is sometimes referred to as wide area position, navigation and timing services or "pnt services," but in this explanation, we will use "rnt," except when citing other sources.) navigation and timing systems are essential to a wide variety of transportation, information, communication, power distribution, and other critical infrastructure. These systems also are important to a broad spectrum of other economic and human activity. Space-based navigation and timing systems, like the global positioning system ("gps"), send very faint signals which are easily disrupted, cannot be received underground, underwater, and frequently not indoors. Rnt technology can overcome these problems in most cases. For example, a strong, wide area navigation signal could allow first responders to navigate underground and indoors and receive communications from outside. This would increase safety for fire fighters, for example, as it could help them find their way and be tracked inside buildings, as well as receive directions to change their tactics or evacuate from the fire chief outside.”

“(1) educating the public and government leaders about the importance of- navigation and timing services and the vulnerabilities of existing systems. Published approx. 180 blog posts, wrote or contributed to 19 articles published in national periodicals, corresponded and met with members of congress, the administration and their staffs. 2) fostering development of wide are resilient navigation and timing systems as public utilities. As a result of outreach and education, congress passed legislation and funded 10m technology demonstration program. (3) preserving and sharing information about resilient navigation and timing services and recognizing those who have made significant contributions. Sponsored workshop, contributed to numerous other events, maintained website that includes library of relevant reference material. Recognized contributors to the field in web posts.”
