Tender: support to GALILEO standardisation
The European Commission's Directorate-General for Energy and Transport has launched a call for tenders for support to GALILEO standardisation. The aim of this contract is to carry on the standardisation process for the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS) and the European Global Navigation Satellite System (GALILEO) in key application areas. It is expected to cover specific aspects of aviation (SBAS L5) and location-based service (LBS) communities (terrestrial trunked radio (TETRA), worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WIMAX), digital video broadcasting (DVB)). Successful tenderers should also help make some relevant progress in the rail, road and multimodal transport domains, supporting the appropriate standardisation bodies and presenting relevant technical contributions to European global navigation satellite system (GNSS) performance standards and standardisation of specific aspects in the operating chain for target communities.For further information, please visit: http://ec.europa.eu/dgs/energy_transport/tenders/2009_en.htm(opens in new window) Or contact: European Commission Directorate-General for Energy and Transport Attn: Eric Chatre rue Demot 28 B-1049 Brussels E-mail: TREN-G5-CALL-FOR-TENDERS@ec.europa.eu Fax: +32 2 2998 332 To see the full details of the call, please consult the following web address: http://ted.europa.eu/udl?uri=TED:NOTICE:137211-2009:TEXT:EN:HTML(opens in new window)
