The 15th anniversary of the EGNOS Open Service (OS) highlights Europe’s leadership in developing a robust satellite navigation system that has become a global reference for other Satellite-Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS).
The Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS) celebrates its successful first year setting this Galileo service apart from other GNSS augmentation services and is poised to meet the rising demand for high-precision global navigation services.
Data and services coming from the EU’s positioning systems Galileo/EGNOS and Copernicus have the potential to transform the rail industry and speed up ERTMS completion. In the future, rail operators could also be able to utilise satcom or high-speed internet provided by the new multiorbital constellation, IRIS2.
The two-day event will gather on 13-14 September Europe’s major rail stakeholders, including key decision makers and representatives across the entire value chain to debate the introduction of the European Union’s Space Programme assets in the rail sector.
After the negotiations between the European Parliament, Council and Commission, the European Union welcomes its new Infrastructure for Resilience, Interconnection & Security by Satellites or IRISS.
