GNSS Safety Warning
The iG9 GNSS receiver tracks and utilizes signals from many space-based satellite navigation
systems:
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the US Government which is solely responsible
for the accuracy and maintenance of the GPS network. Accuracy can also be affected by bad satellite
geometry and obstructions including buildings and tree canopy.
The GLONASS (GLObal NAvigation Satellite System), is a satellite navigation system operated by the
Russian Aerospace Defense Forces.
The Galileo System is the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) that is operated by the European
Union (EU) and European Space Agency (ESA)
BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) (also known as COMPASS or BeiDou-2) is operated by
CNSA (China National Space Administration.)
SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation Services) including WAAS (USA), MSAS (Japan), EGNOS (Europe),
QZSS (Asia), and GAGAN (India) may also be utilized by the iG9 for carrier-phase corrections, in
addition to differential corrections.
iGage Mapping Corporation is not responsible for, nor warrants the viability of the space segment
portion of the GNSS system. The user is cautioned that they alone are responsible for determining
the application of the iG9 to their task at hand.
Any of the GNSS system components can fail at any time. Be prepared for down time and failures.
Do not use the iG9 receiver for any critical navigation purpose.
Export Controlled Device
The iG9 device should be considered to be an export-controlled device.
Because of the complex federal sanction regulations governing controlled countries, as well as the
severe civil and criminal penalties for sanction violations, you should not attempt to interpret export
licensing requirements or license exclusions for travel, or transactions with comprehensively
embargoed countries. Before shipping, providing or hand carrying iG9 devices out of the United
States, consult counsel who specializes in ITAR/DOD matters.
