With new satellite launches planned for this year, Galileo is poised to move into Early Services provision by late 2014/early 2015. The next release of EGNOS is already being developed and will provide improved signal and capacity performance and increased coverage by late 2017. On top of this, the European GNSS market is rapidly expanding – both upstream and downstream. In fact, GSA analysis shows growth over the coming years to continue at nearly 10 percent of the overall GNSS market share.

With the first Horizon 2020 Call for Applications in Satellite Navigation in full-swing, the European GNSS Agency (GSA) takes stock of FP7’s successes.

Annual high-level conference on EU space policy asks ‘what direction for Europe in space between now and 2020?’

The Galileo Public Regulated Service (PRS) offers the opportunity to integrate highly secure Global Satellite Navigation System (GNSS) signals within the mission-critical communication systems of civil authorities throughout Europe and beyond. How this can be achieved and the opportunities this provides for users and manufacturers were outlined at a workshop at the Critical Communications World 2103 conference in Paris.
