我国北斗导航系统具有的短信息通讯功能，为基于位置服务LBS（Location Based Service）的野外观测数据远程采集和传输提供了可能。项目将结合短距离低成本的ZigBee无线网络技术，研究基于位置服务与其他传感器属性信息的融合，研究ZigBee无线网络测距技术，研究无线网络在地学和水文数据采集等方面的应用。研究基于这些技术的具有报警和监控功能的智能航标灯技术。研究这些技术在移动载体监测、控制、调度和识别等方面的应用，研究和分析大型船舶上利用无线网络实现导航定位信息的共享和智能化管理。通过无线网络技术，卫星通讯技术和地理信息系统之间的信息互联，实现导航定位信息的共享，实现属性信息的远距离传输和监控，降低野外观测数据采集的劳动强度和设备冗余度，提高管理的效率和自动化水平，促进不同学科之间的交叉融合。

The short message function of the Beidou system provides the possibility of Location Based Service(LBS) for remote geophysical field data sampling and mornitoring. Combined with the short distance and low cost ZigBee wireless network technology, the application of COMPASS sysytem short message and wireless network in geoscience and hydrological data sampling will be investigated. The ranging technology of ZigBee network can be served as a detecting and guarding tool. As an example case, navigation marks with the function of guarding and monitoring will be systematically designed and tested.Information fusion with other sensors based on LBS will be researched. The application of these technologies in monitoring, management, control and identification of moving vehicles will be extensively studied. The wireless and intelligent management of navigation and positioning information in big ships will be researched and tested. Via wireless networks, satellite communication and geographycal technologies, common information share will be realized, the remote transmission and monitoring of property information will be realized. With the help of these technologies, the intensity of work in geoscientific field data sampling will be significantly reduced, the efficiency of management and level of automation will be improved. The reseach on these aspects will promote the exchange and fusion of different disciplines.
