About GeoNumerics

GeoNumerics (GN) is a small company with a long experience devoted to geomatics and navigation. We develop software and conduct applied research in the areas of geomatics and navigation.

GN members are geomatics/navigation experts of various scientific (mathematics and physics), technical (software engineering and cartography) and management backgrounds. Global satellite navigation systems, inertial navigation, drone navigation and applications, navigation of robots and autonomous vehicles is our business.

We develop and license state-of-the-art software components, provide consultancy services and conduct research and development (R&D) projects for the geomatic and navigation markets. We focus on the needs and technology of high precision kinematic surveying; sensor orientation/calibration, trajectory determination and their integration.

Our software is used all over the world. Our parameter estimation software components are the internal computational engines of orientation and calibration mapping solutions running in mapping, remote sensing and environmental organisations all over the world. We have computed or contributed to the computation of time-position-velocity-attitude (tPVA) trajectories of land vehicles, fixed wing aircraft, drones and space launchers.

We have provided research and development (R&D) consultancy services to organisations in North America, South America and Europe. We have contributed to projects as the European VEGA launcher or to the exploitation of the Galileo satellite navigation system. We have computed or contributed to the computation of tPVA trajectories of land vehicles, fixed wing aircraft, drones and space launchers. We regularly participate in European Union R&D projects like those of the past and current FP7, Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe programmes.

Working environment and conditions

GN headquarters are located in Castelldefels, in the Parc Mediterrani de la Tecnologia (PMT), a pleasant technology park and university campus, easily reachable by train, bus or car. GN is a team of committed, creative and hard-working people where work is fun and fun is work. In return we offer:

- an environment for professional fast development and networking,
- flexible working hours,
- progressive allowance for remote work, and
- as R&D are intensive, we offer 23 rest days distributed in a summer holiday month plus 1 Eastern and 1 Christmas week.
