BeiDou to guide urban construction

Navigation system to play key role in building of administration center

China's self-developed BeiDou Navigation Satellite System will see wider application in urban construction, as a State-owned enterprise plans to leverage the system to help build Beijing's subsidiary administrative center.

The move came after BeiDou's operating accuracy reached the centimeter-level and after a forecast that the output of China's navigation system and satellite location-based service market will reach 400 billion yuan ($58.8 billion) in 2020.
