Abstract: Navigation & Positioning technology and remote sensing technology are two major technologies to acquire the spatial information. Navigation technology provides continuous position for the target point, while the remote sensing provides the geometrical and physical parameters of a target area. The two technologies have their own complentery advantages, so fusion of these technologies are the trend. Combination of the Navigation and the remote sensing technologies moves from coorperation, integration to the deep fusion,and they also derived new theories and methologies. This study discussed the theories and applications of the fusion of the navigation and remote sensing technologies, and derived an unified expression of transforming between navigation and remote sensing. In the future, if considering the requirement of the fusion of navigation and remote sensing in the system design phase, it is still possible to breakthrough current bottleneck of the navigation and remote sensing fusion and promote the development of deeper fusion of these two technologies.

Key words: navigation, remote sensing, fusion, GNSS-reflectometry, GNSS meteorology
