Galileo is the European GNSS offering a wide range of services • Freely accessible service for

positioning, timing and navigation message authentication

Open Service (OS)

OS-Navigation Message Authentication (OS-NMA)

Public Regulated Service (PRS)

Search and Rescue Service (SAR)

High Accuracy Service (HAS)

Signal Authentication Service (SAS)

• Encrypted service designed for greater robustness and higher availability

• Assists locating people in distress and confirms that help is on the way

• Freely accessible high accuracy positioning service

• Authentication service based on the E6 signal code encryption and OS-NMA, allowing for increased robustness of professional applications

EGNOS already available serving EU citizens and industry

Open Service (OS)

Safety of Life Service (SoL)

EGNOS Data Access Service (EDAS)

• Accuracy ~1m, free

• Supporting civil aviation operations down to Localizer Performance with Vertical Guidance (LPV) minima, compliant with the ICAO SARPs

• Accuracy <1m, corrections provided via internet

European GNSS in Railway applications

Non safety relevant

Asset management Galileo or EGNOS compatible receivers used in: DB-Cargo: >30 000 wagons Rail Cargo Austria: >13 000 wagons SBB-Cargo/HUPAC:> 1700 wagons VTG: >80 000 wagons Passenger information/Traffic management Galileo compatible receivers used SNCF: > 250 TGV - Rollout planned also for regional, freight and “yellow” fleet

Safety relevant / Signalling

Outside of EU Roy Hill: > 2mil km of operation successfully completed using GNSS based signaling system PTC (U.S.) > 30 000 miles of track to be covered with European,Galileo-enabled receivers for augmentation In EU - Satellite positioning considered as Game Changer in

2016 MoU considering cooperation for the deployment of the ERTMS

- First operational pilot line in Italy to validate/certify GNSS-positioning within the ERTMS ecosystem

- Inclusion of E-GNSS based positioning in future evolution of ERTMS TSI-CCS under discussion

Ongoing

Launched in August 2019

Certification process for the Pinerolo/Sangone line opened within

the H2020 ERSAT GGC project

GSA User Consultation platform 2017/2018

Rail receiver R&D planned (Galileo grants plan 2018)
