Market Overview:
The global GPS navigation software market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for GPS navigation software in various applications such as sports, transport, and geographical mapping, among others. Additionally, the growing demand for handheld terminals and mobile phones equipped with GPS navigation software is also contributing to the growth of this market. However, factors such as high installation and maintenance costs may restrain the growth of this market during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
GPS navigation software is a computer program that enables a user to navigate to a specific location using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology. GPS navigation software typically runs on a mobile device, such as a smartphone or tablet, and provides turn-by-turn directions to the user. The software can also be used to track the location of the device in real time.
The importance of GPS navigation software lies in its ability to provide users with accurate and reliable directions while traveling. Additionally, GPS tracking capabilities allow users to keep tabs on their whereabouts at all times, which can be especially useful for safety purposes.
Handheld Terminal:
Handheld terminals are mobile computers with a built-in GPS receiver, which can be used for navigation and communication. They are smaller in size as compared to conventional PC/Laptops and have more features like integrated camera, GPRS connectivity (Global Positioning System), voice recognition etc. The global handheld terminal is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to its features such as ease of use while driving or during any outdoor activity like hiking or camping.
Mobile Phone:
Mobile phones are electronic devices that are primarily designed for telephony. They can also perform tasks such as music playing, digital messaging, video viewing and web browsing. Mobile phones have a minuscule internal storage space compared to personal computers; this has led to the development of mobile applications (also known as smartphone apps) which act as substitutes for traditional desktop applications.
Application Insights:
The sport application segment dominated the global GPS navigation software market in 2017. This can be attributed to the growing use of these applications for mobile phone users who are engaged in sports as well as other recreational activities. Furthermore, increasing popularity of outdoor sports such as hiking and biking is expected to drive demand over the forecast period. The transport application segment is also expected to witness significant growth owing to its increasing adoption by drivers for smartphones and tablet computers for directions while traveling on roads and railways. Moreover, companies such as TomTom are focusing on developing innovative products that will enable drivers not only get directions but also listen to music or make calls with ease while driving or using a handheld GPS device in cars or trucks.
The geographical mapping application segment accounted for a considerable share of revenue in 2017 due to its wide-scale adoption by consumers looking forward towards future plans regarding travel destinations across various regions globally.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The U.S., as a leading country, has been witnessing high adoption of navigation devices such as smartphones and GPS units in automobiles for various reasons such as to get information on traffic conditions, avoid jams, find shortest routes etc. Moreover, the presence of prominent players such as Garmin Ltd.; TomTom International BV; and Google LLC has resulted in higher penetration of these systems in the region over the years.
Asia Pacific is expected to be one of the fastest-growing regional markets during forecast years owing to increasing smartphone penetration coupled with rising demand for advanced features offered by global navigation software solutions providers at affordable prices. Furthermore, growing popularity among users for social media sites that require frequent location updates will also drive demand over next eight years from 2018 to 2030 time period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for GPS navigation software in automotive sector
- Proliferation of smartphones and tablets
- Rising demand for location-based services
- Growing popularity of cloud-based services
- Advances in mapping technology
