Overview

Background & policy context:

The Single European Sky initiative aims at creating a new system of more efficient air traffic management. Galileo and EGNOS, Europe's satellite navigation systems, plays an important role in this initiative, making it possible to use satellite positioning in crucial 'safety-of-life' transport applications, including aviation.

Objectives:

EGNOS objectives are deliver services based on GPS and Glonass signals, providing augmentation signals re-transmitted by geostationary satellites and a network of ground stations.

Methodology:

Finalisation of stable EGNOS+ Mission and System requirements, optimalisation of the EGNOS+ architecture in accordance with the possible future evolutions of GALILEO architecture (GALA follow on study), detailing the different steps of the technical and operational transition plan from EGNOS AOC to EGNOS+.
