Project description
Accurate and affordable positioning, navigation and timing for small devices
As satellites are critical infrastructure, it is imperative that satellite-based positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) operate reliably to support dependent infrastructures such as communication, transport and energy. Interruption or manipulation of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) signals pose a threat to safety and security. Meanwhile, augmentation systems that enhance GNSS performance can be very expensive. The goal of the EU-funded EGeNiouSS project is to improve existing European GNSS services by developing an accurate and economical cloud service that utilises novel multi-sensor navigation with a visual localisation component to compensate for common GNSS issues. Initially, an application programming interface will be integrated for smartphones and drones to demonstrate the service in three case studies. After validation, the service will be scaled and adapted for wider purposes.
