Four funding opportunities currently open within the Fundamental Elements: a research and development funding mechanism to development of GNSS chipsets, receivers and antennas building on Galileo and EGNOS differentiators.

According to a new report by Mobile World Live, over 73 % of respondents within the connected car navigation sector are already well aware of Galileo.

The European GNSS Agency (GSA) has signed a contract with Eutelsat Communications for the development, integration and operation of the next-generation EGNOS payload.

The first ever European GNSS Agency (GSA) Galileo Hackathon brought together teams of passionate coders and geo enthusiasts from around the world to compete for some impressive prizes. The venue was Berlin’s Beuth University of Applied Sciences on 3 and 4 November during the sixth WhereCamp ‘unconference’ dedicated to geolocation enthusiasts and professionals. All the Hackathon competitors received a Galileo-ready BQ Smartphone and a certificate, while the two winning teams also each collected a €500 cash prize.

The European GNSS Agency (GSA) is seeking your input for its 2016 EGNOS User Satisfaction Survey.

Taking place on eve of the declaration of Galileo Initial Services, the theme of this year’s GSA Special Prize is the most innovative application idea for Galileo Initial Services. Within this scope of the 2016 European Satellite Navigation Competition, the European GNSS Agency (GSA) sought the best ideas and applications that leverage Galileo’s Initial Services to provide new and more robust benefits to end-users.

European GNSS is accelerating progress towards autonomous driving and, as a result, is increasing safety, enhancing traffic flow and ensuring better public mobility.

Although EGNOS was the main focus of the annual EGNOS Service Provision Workshop, the topic of Galileo and the upcoming declaration of initial services was in the air too.

What lies ahead in the GNSS chipset and receiver domain and what are the trends sure to transform the GNSS landscape of tomorrow? Download the GSA’s first GNSS User Technology Report now to find out. 

The EGNOS Service Provision Workshop, which serves as the annual meeting for EGNOS stakeholders, users and application developers, is scheduled for 27-28 September in Warsaw, Poland.
