Two vehicles from different vendors can both report centimeter accuracy and still disagree about where the ground is. Automotive, agriculture, surveying, and logistics already made positioning a shared layer with a defined accuracy and integrity budget — here's what autonomous mining can borrow.

A centimetre-level positioning error doesn't announce itself. In open-architecture autonomous operations, the fix isn't better GNSS hardware — it's treating corrections delivery, provisioning, datum, and telemetry as infrastructure with explicit design decisions applied consistently across every device on the network.
