EGNOS already available serving EU citizens and industry

Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) Improves GNSS performance European coverage (but under extension in other

regions, e.g. North Africa) Available NOW, free of charge and widely

adopted in off-the-shelf receivers

‘It’s there, use it’

Open Service (OS) Accuracy ~1m, free Available since October 2009

Safety of Life Service (SoL)

Accuracy ~1m, compliant to aviation standards

Available since March 2011

EGNOS Data Access Service (EDAS)

Accuracy <1m, corrections provided by terrestrial networks

Available since July 2012

Galileo is the European GNSS offering four services

Worldwide navigation system “made in EU” Fully compatible with GPS Open service free of charge, delivering dual frequencies Signal authentication will provide trustability

Open Service (OS) Freely accessible service forpositioning and timing

Public Regulated Service (PRS)

Encrypted service designed for greater robustness and higher availability

Search and Rescue Service (SAR)

Assists locating people in distress and confirms that help is on the way

Commercial Service (CS) Delivers authentication and high accuracy services for commercial applications

Some GSC figures (from 1st Jun 2013 to 31st August 2016):

• More than 86k visits from 199 different countries

• 170 user requests handled  and 122 NAGUs published• 416 registered users on the GSC web portal

The GSA’s funding mechanisms promote the development of Galileo compatible solutions

Aims to foster adoption of Galileo and EGNOS mostly via content and application development and supports the integration of services provided by these programmes into devices and their commercialisation

Fundamental Elements projects focus on fostering the development of innovative Galileo‐ and EGNOS‐enabled receivers, antennas and chipsets technologies. The objective is to achieve products that address user needs in priority market segments
