The European Commission’s Directorate-General for Defence Industry and Space (DG-DEFIS) has awarded two new H2020 mission evolution studies to assess how the future evolution of European GNSS (EGNSS) could be beneficial for innovative and demanding autonomous applications. The new service contract shall assess the feasibility of an integrity service complementing EGNSS High Accuracy in the 2030+ timeframe on top of the current baseline of EGNSS services to feed the evolving needs in autonomous transport.
The advent of autonomous transport has the potential to reduce human-based errors, to improve the efficiency of some operations, and to be the enabler of new uses and new applications. However, this will require their operations to be at least as safe as the existing ones.
The European Commission’s Directorate-General for Defence Industry and Space (DG-DEFIS) has awarded two new H2020 mission evolution studies, ICHASE and ITHACA:
The activities to be carried out shall analyse the feasibility of an integrity service complementing European GNSS (EGNSS) High Accuracy in the 2030+ timeframe to feed the evolving needs in demanding new applications without disrupting the current business models of established service providers. A panel of experts will be consulted to validate the integrity concepts and the main outcomes of the project. The studies will assess the respective merits of various directions for the Galileo and EGNOS services to evolve and to build the steps needed before the operational introduction of such new services.

New emerging applications will require more demanding positioning solutions to be able to offer innovative services in the future. What could be the role of EGNOS and Galileo in the 2030+ timeframe for demanding and innovative applications?
The European Commission is currently specifying the long-term evolution of the EGNSS programme, including new services based on Galileo and EGNOS. The use of an integrity service complementing EGNSS High Accuracy in the 2030+ could result in the provision of an accurate and reliable positioning solution, which would translate into the overall improvement of future innovative and demanding services in autonomous transport.
Galileo is the European Union’s Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) providing an accurate, guaranteed global positioning service under civilian control. Galileo is operational since the Initial Service declaration at the end of 2016. As part of the main services provided by Galileo, the Galileo High-Accuracy Service (HAS) shall provide in the near future a high-accuracy positioning and synchronisation information.
EGNOS is the European SBAS and augments GPS L1 C/A civilian signal by providing corrections and integrity information for positioning and navigation applications over Europe. EGNOS version 3, will in the near future augment both GPS and Galileo constellations in the L1 and L5 bands and will extend the service area to the entire landmasses of EU Member States. New EGNOS services could be implemented in further releases of EGNOS as an option for the integrity service complementing EGNSS High Accuracy.

Na stránkách my.esri.com si od minulého týdne můžete stáhnout aplikaci ArcGIS Pro 2.8. V následujícím textu vám přiblížíme některé z nejzajímavějších novinek, které s touto verzí přicházejí. Aplikace je aktuálně dostupná v anglické verzi, balíček s českou lokalizací bude dostupný v řádu týdnů.
Verze ArcGIS Pro 2.8 se vedle přidávání nových funkcí zaměřila také na optimalizaci celé aplikace. Zrychlení tak pocítíte například při:
Vedle toho byla zapracována také řada nápadů, které uživatelé navrhli na stránkách ArcGIS Ideas. Mezi drobná, ale praktická zlepšení tak patří například:
Tato zcela nová funkce umožňuje analyzovat atributová data třídy prvků a upravit je před dalším zpracování. V tomto pohledu se snadno seznámíte s typy atributů, jejich histogramy a statistikou, máte zde k dispozici nástroje pro kontrolu a validaci dat, jako je například jejich čištění, přepočítání, reklasifikace, změna formátu data, změna rozdělení dat, odhalení odlehlých hodnot a podobně.
O prostředí pro Data Engineering si můžete více přečíst v nápovědě Esri: Analysis and geoprocessing – Data Engineering.
Pokud přemisťujete cache z jednoho PC na druhé nebo pokud hodláte prostřednictvím ArcGIS Pro znovu publikovat službu původně publikovanou z ArcMap, pomůže vám nová možnost využít již existující dlaždicovou cache.
Pokud na ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9 publikujete vektorové dlaždice, můžete k této vrstvě publikovat i připojenou vrstvu prvků, kterou můžete použít k dotazování.
V okénku vpravo nahoře (klávesová zkratka Alt+Q) můžete vyhledávat nejen nástroje (jako například Buffer), ale také příkazy (nová mapa, vytvořit graf…).
V nastavení aplikace – Výběr (Selection) je možné zvolit polygonový symbol pro výběr (šrafování nebo poloprůhlednou barvu). Díky tomu poznáte, které polygony jsou vybrané, i když jich je více u sebe. Například v níže uvedeném příkladu není v základním nastavení (vlevo) zřetelné, které obce nejsou vybrané.
V ArcGIS Pro je možné používat dočasně registrované fonty, například ze služby Adobe Fonts.
Pokud vás trápilo, že jste symboly, zejména ty komplikovanější, museli pro každou kategorii nastavovat zvlášť, oceníte nové chování. Nejprve nastavte symbol (například šrafovaný polygon) pro „Všechny ostatní hodnoty“. Až se poté budou načítat další kategorie, budou automaticky reprezentované kopií tohoto symbolu.
To bylo jen několik novinek, která ArcGIS Pro 2.8 přináší. Podrobný soupis všech novinek naleznete na stránce What‘s New in ArcGIS Pro. Podívat se můžete také na desetiminutové video, které většinu novinek rychle představí.

Na Kampě můžete v těchto dnech navštívit výstavu pod širým nebem Energie a civilizace. Dokumentuje cestu člověka časem a jeho vzestupy i pády v závislosti na technologických inovacích a poznání. Výstava je k vidění zdarma a díky nasvícení solárními panely i v noci.
Jsme moc rádi, že jsme mohli k výstavě přispět několika mapami a vizualizacemi – podobně jako k výstavě Voda a civilizace, která se na stejném místě konala před dvěma lety.
Výstavu si na Kampě můžete prohlédnout až do 27. června a pustit si můžete dokonce komentovanou virtuální prohlídku, při které vás výstavou provedou čtyři její hlavní autoři: prorektor Univerzity Karlovy, archeolog a egyptolog Miroslav Bárta, vědecký ředitel CIIRC ČVUT Vladimír Mařík, generální ředitel Povodí Vltavy, s.p., Petr Kubala a Marek Novák, ředitel společnosti Newman & Friends.
Odbočka k Leafletu V rámci jednoho projektu na PocitoveMapy.cz bylo potřeba udělat pro klienta webovou mapu. Normálně by toto udělal Ondra během chvilky, ale tentokrát jsem se rozhodl v rámci mých pokusů naučit se programovat si takovou webovou mapu naprogramovat sám. První myšlenka byla udělat mapy/vrstvy v QGISu a poté pomocí pluginu QGIS2Web „jen exportovat“ webovou prohlížečku. Super […]

The European Union Agency for the Space Programme, EUSPA, is launched today marking the start of a new era for EU Space. Building on the legacy of the European GNSS Agency, EUSPA will take on more responsibilities to create even more opportunities from Space for EU citizens and its economy.
The adoption of the Regulation establishing the new EU Space Programme on April 27 marks a new beginning for the EU Space Programme and for the European GNSS Agency (GSA), which has now officially evolved into EUSPA, with an expanded mandate and new responsibilities.
Under the new Space Regulation, EUSPA’s mandate will now include increased responsibilities in managing the exploitation of Galileo and EGNOS, including their service provision and operational security. Furthermore, the Agency’s new remit includes coordinating the user-related aspects of GOVSATCOM in close collaboration with the Member States and other involved entities.
EUSPA is also responsible for the development of downstream markets and fostering of innovation based on Galileo, EGNOS, and now also for the commercial users of Copernicus, leveraging funding mechanisms such as Fundamental Elements and Horizon Europe. The Agency is also responsible for the security accreditation of all the components of the EU Space Programme. The European Commission may also decide to entrust the Agency with other tasks in the future.
“More and more, our economies, our society and our safety depend on Space. Europe has incredible opportunities ahead that cannot be missed. By creating EUSPA, the European Union will further increase the return on investment made by the EU citizen in the EU Space Programme by strengthening its contribution to the priorities of the Union. We will achieve this primarily by leveraging synergies between the various Programme components, particularly navigation, Earth observation and secure communications, to drive innovation across a broad range of sectors,” said EUSPA Executive Director Rodrigo da Costa.
In particular, bringing management of downstream and combined applications based on Galileo, EGNOS and Copernicus under the umbrella of one agency will make it possible increasingly to leverage synergies its synergies. On their own, these technologies can play a key role supporting a digital and green transformation, but leveraging their synergetic and combined use will facilitate the generation of innovative solutions that bring a higher societal impact.
The teams of committed professionals we have in place at our sites in Europe, from the EGNOS centre in Toulouse to the European GNSS Service Centre in Spain and the Galileo Reference Centre in the Netherlands, will continue to ensure the high quality, robustness and reliability of EUSPA’s service provision. This will be backed up Galileo Security Monitoring Centres in France and in Spain, and the industrial teams managed by EUSPA in the Galileo Control Centres in Germany and Italy, along with facilities around the world. In addition, the Security Accreditation Board will continue its work to initiate and monitor the implementation of security requirements to ensure a robust and uniform level of security for the entire EU Space Programme.
“The new Agency has a core role in the security accreditation of all the components of the EU Space Programme. Ensuring an acceptable risk appetite for the different components is critical for the security, safety and autonomy of the Union and its Member States. The Member States, gathering in their capacity as Security Accreditation Authority of the EU Space Programme collectively exercise this responsibility to meet the security requirements for all the space components,” declared Bruno Vermeire, Security Accreditation Board Chair of EUSPA.
While EUSPA’s mission has expanded, its core aim remains the same – to link EU investment in space to the needs of users in the European Union and around the world. The Agency remains committed to its traditional users and will continue to deliver the high level of GNSS services that users have come to rely on. In addition, the new user communities for Copernicus and GOVSATCOM will be able to benefit from the Agency’s user-oriented focus and the experience it has gained in developing markets for Galileo and EGNOS.
The creation of EUSPA also opens up the possibility for a renewed cooperation with its partners at the European Commission and in the European Space Agency. This will ensure that the EU Space Programme is fully aligned with EU priorities and supports the achievement of key EU policy goals – from the European Green Deal to the digitalisation of the European economy and the promotion of a stronger Europe in the world.
With the key contribution of EUSPA, the new EU Space Programme provides for a streamlined approach towards the development and utilisation of EU space assets. This will guarantee continuity of service and security of infrastructure and systems while ensuring the means to develop the EU´s role in space.

By creating EUSPA, the European Union will further increase the return on investment made by the EU citizen in the EU Space Programme by strengthening its contribution to the priorities of the Union. We will achieve this primarily by leveraging synergies between the various Programme components, particularly navigation, Earth observation and secure communications, to drive innovation across a broad range of sectors,” said EUSPA Executive Director Rodrigo da Costa.
In particular, bringing management of downstream and combined applications based on Galileo, EGNOS and Copernicus under the umbrella of one agency will make it possible increasingly to leverage synergies its synergies. On their own, these technologies can play a key role supporting a digital and green transformation, but leveraging their synergetic and combined use will facilitate the generation of innovative solutions that bring a higher societal impact.
The teams of committed professionals we have in place at our sites in Europe, from the EGNOS centre in Toulouse to the European GNSS Service Centre in Spain and the Galileo Reference Centre in the Netherlands, will continue to ensure the high quality, robustness and reliability of EUSPA’s service provision. This will be backed up Galileo Security Monitoring Centres in France and in Spain, and the industrial teams managed by EUSPA in the Galileo Control Centres in Germany and Italy, along with facilities around the world. In addition, the Security Accreditation Board will continue its work to initiate and monitor the implementation of security requirements to ensure a robust and uniform level of security for the entire EU Space Programme.
“The new Agency has a core role in the security accreditation of all the components of the EU Space Programme. Ensuring an acceptable risk appetite for the different components is critical for the security, safety and autonomy of the Union and its Member States. The Member States, gathering in their capacity as Security Accreditation Authority of the EU Space Programme collectively exercise this responsibility to meet the security requirements for all the space components,” declared Bruno Vermeire, Security Accreditation Board Chair of EUSPA.
Watch this: We are #EUSPA, EU Agency for the Space Programme
While EUSPA’s mission has expanded, its core aim remains the same – to link EU investment in space to the needs of users in the European Union and around the world. The Agency remains committed to its traditional users and will continue to deliver the high level of GNSS services that users have come to rely on. In addition, the new user communities for Copernicus and GOVSATCOM will be able to benefit from the Agency’s user-oriented focus and the experience it has gained in developing markets for Galileo and EGNOS.
The creation of EUSPA also opens up the possibility for a renewed cooperation with its partners at the European Commission and in the European Space Agency. This will ensure that the EU Space Programme is fully aligned with EU priorities and supports the achievement of key EU policy goals – from the European Green Deal to the digitalisation of the European economy and the promotion of a stronger Europe in the world.
With the key contribution of EUSPA, the new EU Space Programme provides for a streamlined approach towards the development and utilisation of EU space assets. This will guarantee continuity of service and security of infrastructure and systems while ensuring the means to develop the EU´s role in space.

With the new Agency coming soon, the European Union Agency for the Space Programme will have a new logo thanks to the creativity of thousands of graphic designers. Find out how it looks like.
In 2020, the European GNSS Agency (GSA), launched the EUSPA Logo Design Contest for the conception and development of the new European Union Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA) logo. The contest stimulated fresh thinking and innovation in order to develop a visually striking, aesthetically appealing logo that will capture the new agency’s quintessence.
Today, with the EU Space Programme Regulation voted by the EU legislators, we are ready to disclose the EUSPA logo which will become the visual point of reference for the EU Space user community.
Everything has its place: the story behind the logo
The elements that make up the new EUSPA logo consist of symbols of the new agency’s enlarged scope but also a reminiscent of its legacy.
Inspired by the shape of the Earth, the logo represents both, the agency’s connection with space and its mission to provide satellite-based services. More specifically, the blue and yellow circular shapes symbolize EUSPA’s values of integrity and professionalism, but also the unity of the European Union, and the cooperation with multiple actors for the delivery of EU Space synergies.
The opening on the right side of the circle is ‘/embracing the EUSPA acronym to showcase how the agency will be interfacing with user communities and European partners alike.
“Thousands of graphic designers answered to the competition and the choice has been really difficult to make. But we are extremely happy with the result and we are confident that EUSPA will be clearly noticeable thanks to this new logo.” noted one member of the jury.
