advanced housing and urban development services, customs issues and
smuggling prevention, accurate harness of fire, current and advanced
insurance services, shipping services and ports, fine weather forecast.

The implementation of the navigation and positioning system will be carried
out in three phases in 2016.

In the first phase, a total of 15 network stations and two data centers will
be launched in Tehran as an experiment to collect accurate position
information.

After the implementation of the first phase in Tehran, the second phase of
the project will be implemented in major cities while the third phase the
whole country will be covered by the system.

The hardware of the system is supposed to be available to users who will
