The submission deadline for the 2014 edition of the GSA-sponsored European Satellite Navigation Competition (ESNC) is 30 June.

The European GNSS Agency (GSA) is holding an information session on 17 July at the Farnborough International Airshow.

According to a panel discussion on aviation at the European Space Solutions Conference in Prague, EGNOS provides very clear benefits to the aviation sector – benefits that need to be further expanded.

Situated on the doorstep of Rudolfinum Hall in Prague’s Jan Palach Square, the European Space Expo proved to be a big hit during its stop in the Golden City from June 7 – 15.

In the rail sector, GNSS systems are primarily used for non-safety critical applications. But as was made clear during the GSA hosted European Space Solutions 2014 conference, European GNSS has a unique value proposition, opening more possibilities for advanced GNSS applications in the rail sector.

ASECAP road operators share a long-term vision for ever-increasing safety and efficiency and the highest possible quality of service for all road users. Participants at the ASECAP conference in Athens discussed a range of challenging issues as they look to the future.

At the ASECAP conference in Athens in May 2014, the GSA did its best to convince the road-tolling community of the benefits of European satellite-based navigation, including Galileo and EGNOS.

The message coming from Prague was clear: European GNSS programmes such as EGNOS and Galileo have the resounding support of public and private sectors – and the users.
