NAL Technologies: Assured Global Tracking & PNT
Military-grade satellite communications and remote asset tracking with GPS-independent assured positioning, navigation and timing.
Satellite Communications Built for Critical Operations
When terrestrial communications cannot be relied upon, NAL Technologies provides the hardware and connectivity needed to keep personnel, vehicles, vessels and remote assets connected.
Using satellite, cellular and hybrid communications technologies, NAL solutions can support everything from simple position reporting and two-way field messaging to remote data transfer, asset monitoring and resilient communications across land, sea and air.
Whether you're protecting personnel in isolated environments, monitoring valuable assets or supporting complex government and defence operations, NAL Technologies is built around one requirement: dependable connectivity when conventional infrastructure is unavailable.
Global Satellite Tracking
NAL's SHOUT family of compact satellite trackers uses Iridium connectivity to transmit position information and enable two-way communications from remote locations around the world. Depending on the device and deployment, capabilities can include automated position reporting, two-way messaging, SOS alerting and secure communications.
Suitable for applications including:
- Remote and lone worker safety
- Military and government personnel
- Search and rescue operations
- Expedition and research teams
- Remote asset monitoring
- Maritime operations
- Critical infrastructure
- Emergency response

NAL Technologies and Assured PNT
Modern positioning, navigation and timing systems often depend heavily on GNSS signals such as GPS. These signals can be degraded by environmental conditions and can also be deliberately disrupted through jamming or manipulated through spoofing.
NAL Technologies' Assured PNT solutions are designed to provide an additional layer of resilience, helping organisations maintain trusted positioning and timing information when conventional GNSS cannot be relied upon.
Potential applications include:
- Defence operations
- Maritime navigation
- Critical infrastructure synchronisation
- Autonomous and uncrewed systems
- Aviation
- Emergency response
- Telecommunications
- Energy and utilities
Frequently Asked Questions
NAL Technologies, also known as Naltec, develops satellite and mobile communications, tracking, data and positioning technologies for organisations operating in demanding environments. Its solutions are used across government, defence, maritime, critical infrastructure, transport, emergency response and remote commercial operations.
NAL Technologies is the current company identity combining the former NAL Research and Blue Sky Network businesses. The new NAL Technologies brand was introduced in 2026.
NAL SHOUT satellite trackers use the Iridium satellite network, allowing compatible devices to communicate well beyond the reach of conventional terrestrial mobile networks.
Yes. Satellite-enabled NAL trackers can transmit communications through the Iridium network rather than depending on terrestrial cellular coverage. A suitable view of the sky is still required for reliable satellite communication.
Although exact capabilities vary by model, many NAL SHOUT devices support two-way satellite messaging, allowing remote users not only to transmit their position but also to exchange operational messages with other users or monitoring teams.
Yes. Satellite tracking and messaging can provide an additional communications layer for employees operating beyond dependable cellular coverage. Depending on the selected device and system configuration, capabilities can include location reporting, two-way messaging and emergency alerting.
SWaP stands for Size, Weight and Power. In satellite communications, low-SWaP equipment is particularly important for portable, vehicle-mounted, autonomous and embedded applications where physical space, payload weight and available power are limited.
Assured PNT refers to technologies designed to improve the resilience and reliability of Positioning, Navigation and Timing information.
Rather than relying solely on conventional GNSS/GPS, Assured PNT introduces additional sources or technologies that can help maintain trustworthy positioning or timing when GNSS signals are degraded, jammed or spoofed.
No. They solve related but different problems.
Satellite tracking typically involves determining an asset's position and transmitting that information over a satellite communications network.
Assured PNT focuses on ensuring the positioning, navigation or timing information itself remains dependable when conventional GNSS/GPS is disrupted or cannot be trusted.
NAL Technologies provides solutions covering both areas.
Yes. If you're considering NAL technology for personnel tracking, remote assets, government operations, critical infrastructure or another specialist application, speak to GTC about your operational requirements.
