EGNSS awareness raising and capacity building
Additional information for applicants
Proposals should aim to develop EGNSS competences in EU Member States and Associated Countries.
The actions should focus on EGNSS dissemination, awareness raising and communication, as well as provide opportunities for the creation of industrial networks in Europe and globally. In so doing, the actions should promote and demonstrate the advantages and differentiators of EGNSS services and showcasing EGNSS as an attractive option for investors, both in Europe and globally.
Technology promotion activities may include incentive schemes in the form of financial support to third parties for innovative EGNSS-based applications, boosting the uptake of downstream satellite navigation applications across Europe and beyond.

EGNSS applications fostering digitisation
Additional information for applicants
Actions should deliver innovative applications with commercial impact and a clear market uptake perspective. The proposed EGNSS applications may integrate digital technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, big data and robotics.
Areas with high potential include commercial Location Based Services, e.g. secure financial transactions, mobile workforce management, tracking solutions and augmented reality, as well as future telecommunication networks. Applications related to the Smart Cities concept also fall within the scope of this topic.
Proposals should build on unique features of EGNOS and Galileo, e.g.:
- Multi-constellation;
- Fusion with other positioning techniques, including sensor fusion and innovative network fusion techniques;
- Authentication services provided by Galileo;
- Techniques to optimise power consumption.
