On June 2, 2026, Prof. Jianghui Geng, together with PRIDE team members Qiang Wen and Bingchen Fu, as well as staff members from the Satellite Navigation journal, visited the University of Chile and participated in a workshop on collaboration in high-precision GNSS data processing. The workshop was jointly organized by the State Key Laboratory of Precision Geodesy and Positioning, the University of Chile, and São Paulo State University (UNESP), Brazil.

During the workshop, the University of Chile team reviewed the progress of collaborative research since the signing of the cooperation agreement between China and Chile in 2020. The collaboration has focused on several areas, including real-time GNSS data processing, GNSS seismology, and earthquake and tsunami early warning systems.

Prof. Geng presented the major research achievements of the PRIDE team in recent years, including the development and dissemination of precise GNSS satellite products, the open-source PRIDE PPP-AR software package, and recent advances in high-precision positioning using smartphones. Researchers from São Paulo State University shared their latest applications of GNSS technologies in geophysics and atmospheric sciences.

During the discussions, participants from the three institutions explored potential directions for future cooperation. They expressed a strong interest in promoting more exchange visits and joint research activities, as well as seeking support from international and intergovernmental cooperation programs to further strengthen collaborative innovation in high-precision GNSS applications.

Following the workshop, staff members of the Satellite Navigation journal introduced the journal to participants and promoted its recent developments. They expressed their hope of attracting more high-quality submissions from the international GNSS and geoscience communities.
