The navigation play important role in agriculture and food production. There exist set of tasks, where navigation technologies could be used. We could named such task like: On line machinery management flat management of agriculture machinery, on line fertilisation management etc.

On line data collection on line access to meteorological data, satellite imagery, sensors measuring, etc
Traceability tools evidence of all activities in the field
Logistic   o Inbound tracing systems. Systems for tracing raw material and resources at the input end to the production process back to their origin.
o Outbound tracing. Systems to keep track of products leaving the production facilities of an organization.
o Internal tracing. A method or system to trace resources through the production as the are processed.
o Fleet management systems. Systems that keeps track of all fleets or vehicles in the distribution channel

The Navlog designed and currently provide implementation of open systems, including:

Mobile Units for data collection from machinery and cars
Server solution for Web based management of agriculture machinery and cars
Client application for navigation and logistic tasks
