Our general manager and founder of the company, Dr. Tim Springer, has been the prime developer of the GNSS part of this NAPEOS software.

What's in a name?
You may wonder where the name PosiTim comes from!?
Well it is based on four different words. First of all it comes from the two words that are central to GNSS; the words Position and Time. These two keywords coupled with the first name of the company founder and the resemblence with the word positive have led to the selection of the company name PosiTim.
