These grants ensure that more European operators and aircraft, such as the ATR 42-600 (pictured) are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures.
Published: 
20 July 2016

European GNSS Agency (GSA) funds 14 projects to help foster the implementation of EGNOS-based operations and LPV-200 procedures at European airports as part of its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants.

The GSA recently announced the projects selected for funding under its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/EEX.0030/2015. This second call brought great results, with 14 projects selected for funding, starting from July and August 2016.

The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)-based operations, including LPV-200 (localiser performance with vertical guidance) procedures, at different European aerodromes, with an emphasis on the regional airports and heliports that general and business aviation operators depend upon.

In addition, the call also aims to support the development and installation of GPS/EGNOS-enabled avionics and grant airworthiness certification for required navigation performance approach (RNP APCH) procedures down to LPV minima and point in space (PinS), and to achieve the approval of Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) for LPV operations of aircraft already equipped with satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) capabilities.

Specifically, the following results are expected:

  • 40 LPV procedures at 18 airports
  • 2 LPV-200 procedures at Italy’s Trento Airport
  • 15 PinS LPV procedures
  • 2 RNP 0.3 routes
  • 44 aircraft retrofitted by 9 operators
  • 4 avionics solutions (STC) development
  • 3 flight simulator-type upgrades
  • Development of EGNOS navigation and surveillance sensors for (RPAS) applications.

“These grants will ensure more European airports and more European operators are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures, meaning increased safety and more accessibility for everyone,” says GSA Head of Market Development GG Calini.

The total budget for the second call was EUR 6 million.

The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of EGNOS-based operations, including LPV-200 procedures.

        Published: 
        20 July 2016

        European GNSS Agency (GSA) funds 14 projects to help foster the implementation of EGNOS-based operations and LPV-200 procedures at European airports as part of its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants.

        The GSA recently announced the projects selected for funding under its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/EEX.0030/2015. This second call brought great results, with 14 projects selected for funding, starting from July and August 2016.

        The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)-based operations, including LPV-200 (localiser performance with vertical guidance) procedures, at different European aerodromes, with an emphasis on the regional airports and heliports that general and business aviation operators depend upon.

        In addition, the call also aims to support the development and installation of GPS/EGNOS-enabled avionics and grant airworthiness certification for required navigation performance approach (RNP APCH) procedures down to LPV minima and point in space (PinS), and to achieve the approval of Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) for LPV operations of aircraft already equipped with satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) capabilities.

        Specifically, the following results are expected:

        • 40 LPV procedures at 18 airports
        • 2 LPV-200 procedures at Italy’s Trento Airport
        • 15 PinS LPV procedures
        • 2 RNP 0.3 routes
        • 44 aircraft retrofitted by 9 operators
        • 4 avionics solutions (STC) development
        • 3 flight simulator-type upgrades
        • Development of EGNOS navigation and surveillance sensors for (RPAS) applications.

        “These grants will ensure more European airports and more European operators are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures, meaning increased safety and more accessibility for everyone,” says GSA Head of Market Development GG Calini.

        The total budget for the second call was EUR 6 million.

        The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of EGNOS-based operations, including LPV-200 procedures.

        Published: 
        20 July 2016

        European GNSS Agency (GSA) funds 14 projects to help foster the implementation of EGNOS-based operations and LPV-200 procedures at European airports as part of its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants.

        The GSA recently announced the projects selected for funding under its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/EEX.0030/2015. This second call brought great results, with 14 projects selected for funding, starting from July and August 2016.

        The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)-based operations, including LPV-200 (localiser performance with vertical guidance) procedures, at different European aerodromes, with an emphasis on the regional airports and heliports that general and business aviation operators depend upon.

        In addition, the call also aims to support the development and installation of GPS/EGNOS-enabled avionics and grant airworthiness certification for required navigation performance approach (RNP APCH) procedures down to LPV minima and point in space (PinS), and to achieve the approval of Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) for LPV operations of aircraft already equipped with satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) capabilities.

        Specifically, the following results are expected:

        • 40 LPV procedures at 18 airports
        • 2 LPV-200 procedures at Italy’s Trento Airport
        • 15 PinS LPV procedures
        • 2 RNP 0.3 routes
        • 44 aircraft retrofitted by 9 operators
        • 4 avionics solutions (STC) development
        • 3 flight simulator-type upgrades
        • Development of EGNOS navigation and surveillance sensors for (RPAS) applications.

        “These grants will ensure more European airports and more European operators are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures, meaning increased safety and more accessibility for everyone,” says GSA Head of Market Development GG Calini.

        The total budget for the second call was EUR 6 million.

        The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of EGNOS-based operations, including LPV-200 procedures.

        European GNSS Agency (GSA) funds 14 projects to help foster the implementation of EGNOS-based operations and LPV-200 procedures at European airports as part of its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants.

        The GSA recently announced the projects selected for funding under its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/EEX.0030/2015. This second call brought great results, with 14 projects selected for funding, starting from July and August 2016.

        The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)-based operations, including LPV-200 (localiser performance with vertical guidance) procedures, at different European aerodromes, with an emphasis on the regional airports and heliports that general and business aviation operators depend upon.

        In addition, the call also aims to support the development and installation of GPS/EGNOS-enabled avionics and grant airworthiness certification for required navigation performance approach (RNP APCH) procedures down to LPV minima and point in space (PinS), and to achieve the approval of Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) for LPV operations of aircraft already equipped with satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) capabilities.

        Specifically, the following results are expected:

        • 40 LPV procedures at 18 airports
        • 2 LPV-200 procedures at Italy’s Trento Airport
        • 15 PinS LPV procedures
        • 2 RNP 0.3 routes
        • 44 aircraft retrofitted by 9 operators
        • 4 avionics solutions (STC) development
        • 3 flight simulator-type upgrades
        • Development of EGNOS navigation and surveillance sensors for (RPAS) applications.

        “These grants will ensure more European airports and more European operators are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures, meaning increased safety and more accessibility for everyone,” says GSA Head of Market Development GG Calini.

        The total budget for the second call was EUR 6 million.

        The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of EGNOS-based operations, including LPV-200 procedures.

            European GNSS Agency (GSA) funds 14 projects to help foster the implementation of EGNOS-based operations and LPV-200 procedures at European airports as part of its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants.

            The GSA recently announced the projects selected for funding under its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/EEX.0030/2015. This second call brought great results, with 14 projects selected for funding, starting from July and August 2016.

            The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)-based operations, including LPV-200 (localiser performance with vertical guidance) procedures, at different European aerodromes, with an emphasis on the regional airports and heliports that general and business aviation operators depend upon.

            In addition, the call also aims to support the development and installation of GPS/EGNOS-enabled avionics and grant airworthiness certification for required navigation performance approach (RNP APCH) procedures down to LPV minima and point in space (PinS), and to achieve the approval of Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) for LPV operations of aircraft already equipped with satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) capabilities.

            Specifically, the following results are expected:

            • 40 LPV procedures at 18 airports
            • 2 LPV-200 procedures at Italy’s Trento Airport
            • 15 PinS LPV procedures
            • 2 RNP 0.3 routes
            • 44 aircraft retrofitted by 9 operators
            • 4 avionics solutions (STC) development
            • 3 flight simulator-type upgrades
            • Development of EGNOS navigation and surveillance sensors for (RPAS) applications.

            “These grants will ensure more European airports and more European operators are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures, meaning increased safety and more accessibility for everyone,” says GSA Head of Market Development GG Calini.

            The total budget for the second call was EUR 6 million.

            The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of EGNOS-based operations, including LPV-200 procedures.

              First 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/GRANT/EGNOS/03/2014 producing results

              Meanwhile, the 13 projects selected as part of the first call are all currently at various stages of implementation, with some already taking positive steps towards enabling EGNOS operations, particularly as they relate to regional aviation. Among these initial achievements is an upgrade of three simulators, with one having recently entered the market and the second to follow in the coming months. Another project is well on its way to successfully retrofitting a regional aircraft, making it to be another ‘ready to fly’ with EGNOS in 2017.

              Overall, the first call is on course to publish up “first package “of 15 EGNOS procedures by the end of 2016.

                European GNSS Agency (GSA) funds 14 projects to help foster the implementation of EGNOS-based operations and LPV-200 procedures at European airports as part of its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants.

                The GSA recently announced the projects selected for funding under its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/EEX.0030/2015. This second call brought great results, with 14 projects selected for funding, starting from July and August 2016.

                The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)-based operations, including LPV-200 (localiser performance with vertical guidance) procedures, at different European aerodromes, with an emphasis on the regional airports and heliports that general and business aviation operators depend upon.

                In addition, the call also aims to support the development and installation of GPS/EGNOS-enabled avionics and grant airworthiness certification for required navigation performance approach (RNP APCH) procedures down to LPV minima and point in space (PinS), and to achieve the approval of Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) for LPV operations of aircraft already equipped with satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) capabilities.

                Specifically, the following results are expected:

                • 40 LPV procedures at 18 airports
                • 2 LPV-200 procedures at Italy’s Trento Airport
                • 15 PinS LPV procedures
                • 2 RNP 0.3 routes
                • 44 aircraft retrofitted by 9 operators
                • 4 avionics solutions (STC) development
                • 3 flight simulator-type upgrades
                • Development of EGNOS navigation and surveillance sensors for (RPAS) applications.

                “These grants will ensure more European airports and more European operators are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures, meaning increased safety and more accessibility for everyone,” says GSA Head of Market Development GG Calini.

                The total budget for the second call was EUR 6 million.

                The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of EGNOS-based operations, including LPV-200 procedures.

                  20 July 2016

                  European GNSS Agency (GSA) funds 14 projects to help foster the implementation of EGNOS-based operations and LPV-200 procedures at European airports as part of its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants.

                  The GSA recently announced the projects selected for funding under its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/EEX.0030/2015. This second call brought great results, with 14 projects selected for funding, starting from July and August 2016.

                  The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)-based operations, including LPV-200 (localiser performance with vertical guidance) procedures, at different European aerodromes, with an emphasis on the regional airports and heliports that general and business aviation operators depend upon.

                  In addition, the call also aims to support the development and installation of GPS/EGNOS-enabled avionics and grant airworthiness certification for required navigation performance approach (RNP APCH) procedures down to LPV minima and point in space (PinS), and to achieve the approval of Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) for LPV operations of aircraft already equipped with satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) capabilities.

                  Specifically, the following results are expected:

                  • 40 LPV procedures at 18 airports
                  • 2 LPV-200 procedures at Italy’s Trento Airport
                  • 15 PinS LPV procedures
                  • 2 RNP 0.3 routes
                  • 44 aircraft retrofitted by 9 operators
                  • 4 avionics solutions (STC) development
                  • 3 flight simulator-type upgrades
                  • Development of EGNOS navigation and surveillance sensors for (RPAS) applications.

                  “These grants will ensure more European airports and more European operators are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures, meaning increased safety and more accessibility for everyone,” says GSA Head of Market Development GG Calini.

                  The total budget for the second call was EUR 6 million.

                  The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of EGNOS-based operations, including LPV-200 procedures.

                    The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)-based operations, including LPV-200 (localiser performance with vertical guidance) procedures, at different European aerodromes, with an emphasis on the regional airports and heliports that general and business aviation operators depend upon.

                    In addition, the call also aims to support the development and installation of GPS/EGNOS-enabled avionics and grant airworthiness certification for required navigation performance approach (RNP APCH) procedures down to LPV minima and point in space (PinS), and to achieve the approval of Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) for LPV operations of aircraft already equipped with satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) capabilities.

                    Specifically, the following results are expected:

                    • 40 LPV procedures at 18 airports
                    • 2 LPV-200 procedures at Italy’s Trento Airport
                    • 15 PinS LPV procedures
                    • 2 RNP 0.3 routes
                    • 44 aircraft retrofitted by 9 operators
                    • 4 avionics solutions (STC) development
                    • 3 flight simulator-type upgrades
                    • Development of EGNOS navigation and surveillance sensors for (RPAS) applications.

                    “These grants will ensure more European airports and more European operators are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures, meaning increased safety and more accessibility for everyone,” says GSA Head of Market Development GG Calini.

                    The total budget for the second call was EUR 6 million.

                    The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of EGNOS-based operations, including LPV-200 procedures.

                      Meanwhile, the 13 projects selected as part of the first call are all currently at various stages of implementation, with some already taking positive steps towards enabling EGNOS operations, particularly as they relate to regional aviation. Among these initial achievements is an upgrade of three simulators, with one having recently entered the market and the second to follow in the coming months. Another project is well on its way to successfully retrofitting a regional aircraft, making it to be another ‘ready to fly’ with EGNOS in 2017.

                      Overall, the first call is on course to publish up “first package “of 15 EGNOS procedures by the end of 2016.

                        Meanwhile, the 13 projects selected as part of the first call are all currently at various stages of implementation, with some already taking positive steps towards enabling EGNOS operations, particularly as they relate to regional aviation. Among these initial achievements is an upgrade of three simulators, with one having recently entered the market and the second to follow in the coming months. Another project is well on its way to successfully retrofitting a regional aircraft, making it to be another ‘ready to fly’ with EGNOS in 2017.

                        Overall, the first call is on course to publish up “first package “of 15 EGNOS procedures by the end of 2016.

                        Published: 
                        20 July 2016

                        European GNSS Agency (GSA) funds 14 projects to help foster the implementation of EGNOS-based operations and LPV-200 procedures at European airports as part of its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants.

                        The GSA recently announced the projects selected for funding under its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/EEX.0030/2015. This second call brought great results, with 14 projects selected for funding, starting from July and August 2016.

                        The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)-based operations, including LPV-200 (localiser performance with vertical guidance) procedures, at different European aerodromes, with an emphasis on the regional airports and heliports that general and business aviation operators depend upon.

                        In addition, the call also aims to support the development and installation of GPS/EGNOS-enabled avionics and grant airworthiness certification for required navigation performance approach (RNP APCH) procedures down to LPV minima and point in space (PinS), and to achieve the approval of Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) for LPV operations of aircraft already equipped with satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) capabilities.

                        Specifically, the following results are expected:

                        • 40 LPV procedures at 18 airports
                        • 2 LPV-200 procedures at Italy’s Trento Airport
                        • 15 PinS LPV procedures
                        • 2 RNP 0.3 routes
                        • 44 aircraft retrofitted by 9 operators
                        • 4 avionics solutions (STC) development
                        • 3 flight simulator-type upgrades
                        • Development of EGNOS navigation and surveillance sensors for (RPAS) applications.

                        “These grants will ensure more European airports and more European operators are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures, meaning increased safety and more accessibility for everyone,” says GSA Head of Market Development GG Calini.

                        The total budget for the second call was EUR 6 million.

                        The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of EGNOS-based operations, including LPV-200 procedures.

                          European GNSS Agency (GSA) funds 14 projects to help foster the implementation of EGNOS-based operations and LPV-200 procedures at European airports as part of its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants.

                          The GSA recently announced the projects selected for funding under its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/EEX.0030/2015. This second call brought great results, with 14 projects selected for funding, starting from July and August 2016.

                          The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)-based operations, including LPV-200 (localiser performance with vertical guidance) procedures, at different European aerodromes, with an emphasis on the regional airports and heliports that general and business aviation operators depend upon.

                          In addition, the call also aims to support the development and installation of GPS/EGNOS-enabled avionics and grant airworthiness certification for required navigation performance approach (RNP APCH) procedures down to LPV minima and point in space (PinS), and to achieve the approval of Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) for LPV operations of aircraft already equipped with satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) capabilities.

                          Specifically, the following results are expected:

                          • 40 LPV procedures at 18 airports
                          • 2 LPV-200 procedures at Italy’s Trento Airport
                          • 15 PinS LPV procedures
                          • 2 RNP 0.3 routes
                          • 44 aircraft retrofitted by 9 operators
                          • 4 avionics solutions (STC) development
                          • 3 flight simulator-type upgrades
                          • Development of EGNOS navigation and surveillance sensors for (RPAS) applications.

                          “These grants will ensure more European airports and more European operators are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures, meaning increased safety and more accessibility for everyone,” says GSA Head of Market Development GG Calini.

                          The total budget for the second call was EUR 6 million.

                          The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of EGNOS-based operations, including LPV-200 procedures.

                          First 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/GRANT/EGNOS/03/2014 producing results

                          Meanwhile, the 13 projects selected as part of the first call are all currently at various stages of implementation, with some already taking positive steps towards enabling EGNOS operations, particularly as they relate to regional aviation. Among these initial achievements is an upgrade of three simulators, with one having recently entered the market and the second to follow in the coming months. Another project is well on its way to successfully retrofitting a regional aircraft, making it to be another ‘ready to fly’ with EGNOS in 2017.

                          Overall, the first call is on course to publish up “first package “of 15 EGNOS procedures by the end of 2016.

                          These grants ensure that more European operators and aircraft, such as the ATR 42-600 (pictured) are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures.
                          Published: 
                          20 July 2016

                          European GNSS Agency (GSA) funds 14 projects to help foster the implementation of EGNOS-based operations and LPV-200 procedures at European airports as part of its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants.

                          The GSA recently announced the projects selected for funding under its 2015 Aviation Call for Grants GSA/EEX.0030/2015. This second call brought great results, with 14 projects selected for funding, starting from July and August 2016.

                          The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS)-based operations, including LPV-200 (localiser performance with vertical guidance) procedures, at different European aerodromes, with an emphasis on the regional airports and heliports that general and business aviation operators depend upon.

                          In addition, the call also aims to support the development and installation of GPS/EGNOS-enabled avionics and grant airworthiness certification for required navigation performance approach (RNP APCH) procedures down to LPV minima and point in space (PinS), and to achieve the approval of Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) for LPV operations of aircraft already equipped with satellite-based augmentation system (SBAS) capabilities.

                          Specifically, the following results are expected:

                          • 40 LPV procedures at 18 airports
                          • 2 LPV-200 procedures at Italy’s Trento Airport
                          • 15 PinS LPV procedures
                          • 2 RNP 0.3 routes
                          • 44 aircraft retrofitted by 9 operators
                          • 4 avionics solutions (STC) development
                          • 3 flight simulator-type upgrades
                          • Development of EGNOS navigation and surveillance sensors for (RPAS) applications.

                          “These grants will ensure more European airports and more European operators are able to take full advantage of EGNOS procedures, meaning increased safety and more accessibility for everyone,” says GSA Head of Market Development GG Calini.

                          The total budget for the second call was EUR 6 million.

                          The funded projects are expected to foster the design, development and operational implementation of EGNOS-based operations, including LPV-200 procedures.

                            Meanwhile, the 13 projects selected as part of the first call are all currently at various stages of implementation, with some already taking positive steps towards enabling EGNOS operations, particularly as they relate to regional aviation. Among these initial achievements is an upgrade of three simulators, with one having recently entered the market and the second to follow in the coming months. Another project is well on its way to successfully retrofitting a regional aircraft, making it to be another ‘ready to fly’ with EGNOS in 2017.

                            Overall, the first call is on course to publish up “first package “of 15 EGNOS procedures by the end of 2016.

                            ContextCapture Improves Quality of Reality Modeling Within Geospatial Workflows

                            19.7.2016 17:01   Bentley Systems  

                            Bentley Systems announces general access to the latest release of ContextCapture and ContextCapture Center. This release enhances the accessibility, scale, and quality of reality models that can be produced for use in BIM and geospatial workflows. Key capabilities include:

                            • New multi-resolution mesh support for third-party formats including Esri i3s, Google Earth KML, SpaceEyes3D, OSGB (OpenSceneGraph), and LODTreeExport formats.
                            • Multi-resolution mesh support for ContextCapture’s native 3MX format.
                            • A threefold increase from 30 to 100 gigapixels of imagery that can be processed with ContextCapture.

                            The expansion of multi-resolution format support enables ContextCapture to provide improved quality and performance of reality modeling data within geospatial workflows, particularly valuable for the large community of ArcGIS and other geospatial users. These users can now reduce the cost and time for reality capture and increase accessibility of reality data throughout projects and among enterprise stakeholders. 

                            The expansion in processing capacity to 100 gigapixels for ContextCapture makes it affordable and easier to produce larger models and 3D meshes with high fidelity and cm level precision, even at scales as large as entire cities (kilometer scale models).

                            “At Christopher Burke Engineering we are always innovating to deliver cutting-edge services to our clients and look to Bentley’s ContextCapture to complement our traditional survey approaches. The software allows us to very easily process hundreds of images taken by drone or hand-held digital camera into a 3D reality mesh that can then be consumed inside Bentley OpenRoads products to speed our civil engineering design work. We are eager to begin deploying this technology on a wide array of projects,” said Christopher B. Burke, Ph.D., PE, D.WRE, Dist.M. ASCE, NAC, president, Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd.

                            “With this release of ContextCapture, reality meshes are now more accessible throughout ArcGIS workflows as well as Bentley’s native V8i design modeling workflows including those using OpenRoads, AECOsim, and OpenPlant. Through our advances in integrating reality models of any scale into geospatial workflows, GIS professionals, particularly those using Esri ArcGIS products, can now affordably incorporate high-fidelity models of the real world into their existing GIS datasets,” said Santanu Das, SVP, design modeling at Bentley Systems.

Vychází především z projektu RÚIAN (Registr územní identifikace, adres a nemovitostí), který je součástí základních registrů České Republiky a obsahuje informace o územní identifikaci, adresách a nemovitostech. Data publikovaná v rámci INSPIRE obsahují pouze adresní místa a jejich komponenty, kterými jsou stát, obec, část obce, městský obvod v Praze (MOP), městký obvod/městská část (MO/MČ), ulice a pošta a to na území celé České Republiky. Obsahují rozvněž geometrii, která určuje definiční bod adresního místa. V datové sadě nění uvedeno 2,63%, t.j. 76236 adresních míst (k 18. 07. 2016), protože neobsahují definiční bod, podle kterého by je bylo možné prostorově určit.

                            Major vehicle manufacturers are now delivering motor vehicles with connected services for drivers, including real-time traffic and weather reports and accident or road works warnings. More applications are on the way, and the technology systems that support them will enable the increasing number of autonomous vehicles that will soon be cruising down our roads and highways.

                            A key message from the conference was to see integrated GNSS systems as providing more than just positioning and navigation. For example, with GNSS a wide range of other key services are made possible, including:

                            • Precise navigation systems
                            • Autonomous vehicles and assisted driving
                            • Cooperative ITS
                            • Usage-based insurance schemes
                            • Road pricing and congestion charging
                            • Automated eCall distress signals
                            • Intelligent speed adaptation

                            As to the use of GNSS within the connected car, the trend is for carmakers to take a more important role within GNSS-related services. In fact, by 2020 more and more vehicles with built-in GNSS and fewer ‘nomadic devices’ like portable GNSS receivers will be coming onto the market. This trend is already being seen in prototype autonomous driving cars, where GNSS is viewed as a fundamental enabling technology.

                            Another advantage that GNSS has within the connected car is that it is complementary to and interoperable with other automotive technologies. Although today we talk about sensor-based versus connection-based solutions for a variety of vehicle services, a ‘converged solution’ seems to be the best alternative, combining the best of both approaches. By integrating sensor data and connectivity-based information operators can reduce the need for the most expensive sensors and, at the same time, save money on infrastructure. Accurate and secure GNSS will help drastically reduce costs, with a single, integrated ‘GNSS engine’ embedded within the vehicle that will provide positioning, navigation and timing for all needs – including many different applications and car functions.

                            Protecting your car from cyber attacks

                            With the advent and rapid spread of connectivity in cars, cyber security has suddenly become a major concern within the automotive industry. At a special session on cyber security, Anna Stylianou from SBD explained how new connected technologies, including those specifically aimed at increasing safety, have actually increased the attack surface available to hackers. “As vehicles become completely autonomous, they become more reliant on connected services and GNSS, and even ‘driver fall-back’ in case of error will no longer be an option,” she said. “As a result, the risks associated with hacking or GNSS jamming and spoofing will be even greater.”

                            Luckily, Galileo, which is set to launch initial services later this year, will play a key role in combating these security threats. “There is an increasing need to deliver a robust GNSS module that can provide an efficient, resilient and low-cost defence against jamming or spoofing attacks,” said GSA Deputy Head of Market Development Fiametta Diani. “Galileo will be a dual frequency service, so it will be resistant to atmospheric interference, and it will have greater resistance to multipath interference, or interference due to signal reflections off buildings and other objects, such as in urban canyons.”

                            Galileo will also have an authentication signal to detect intentional interference, such as spoofing attacks. “This authentication feature is essentially a digital signature that will be available on the E1 Open Service frequency, but also on the Commercial Service E6 frequency, which will certainly be interesting for autonomous driving,” said Diani.

                            In a key announcement, Diani cited a new independent study by Broadcom, a major international wireless and broadband company, which confirms Galileo mitigation of multipath effects. “Recent tests by Broadcom show that Galileo E1 is a better solution against multipath than GPS L1,” she said. “The strength of the Galileo signal, together with an advanced code modulation, makes Galileo better at mitigating multipath effects, especially in E5, but also in E1.”

                            Receivers that support Galileo show better performance in a multipath environment. This is because by supporting more constellations, one increases the chances of being able to select only direct line-of-sight signals. Not only that, but E1 measurements from Galileo satellites are more accurate in multipath environments than L1 measurements from GPS satellites – meaning the effect of multipath is two times smaller with Galileo E1 compared to GPS L1.

                            The authentication feature will be operational in the Open Service from 2018, at which time Galileo will be the sole and unique GNSS constellation offering such a security feature.

                            Europe in push for autonomous vehicles

                            Momentum is now building for autonomous vehicles, with GNSS as a key component, and here the European Union is delivering the policy support to back up this movement. Last April, for example, the transport ministers of all 28 EU Member States signed the ‘Amsterdam Declaration’ during an informal meeting of the Transport Council. The document lays out the specific steps necessary for the development of self-driving technologies in the EU. With this new Declaration, the European Commission and its Member States, along with the transport industry, have pledged to develop rules and regulations for autonomous vehicles – meaning Europe has a shared strategy on connected and autonomous driving.

                            This clear commitment on the part of the EU means the GSA can move forward with confidence in its support for research in this exciting new area. In fact, several ongoing research projects are already being funded by the GSA under the EU’s research framework budget, including Horizon 2020 projects , ‘Indrive’ and ‘Inlane’; many of which involve such European big-name players as TomTom, Fiat or Renault.

                            In November, a new call for proposals under the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme will be launched. The call will have a total budget of €33 million and is specifically targeting research in support of GNSS, including autonomous vehicle technologies.

                            Stay tuned to the GSA website for more information.

                            HIGHLIGHTS:  ISPRS COUNCIL | PHOTON LIDAR | STUDENTS | DUBAI Photon Lidar Airborne Lidar has matured over the last two decades into a mapping technology routinely used for 3D modelling of urban areas, capturing boreal forests, seabed mapping and many other applications all over the world. The speed with which the laser pulses are fired continues to soar and for a number of commercial systems it has reached the impressive number of one million pulses per second. Multiple pulses in air and (full) waveform digitisation are other developments which found their way to the users in recent years. Read on… 16 Years’ Experience on the ISPRS Council (By Orhan Altan)Looking back, I have been able to carry out the priorities set at the beginning of my term. In 2000, when I was elected as Congress Director, my priority was to organise an excellent event that would be memorable in the minds of people for a long time and I can confess that I have achieved this goal, as I still meet many people around the world who thank me for the wonderful congress in 2004. Another interim goal that arose during my time as congress director was the request of young scientists to have their own programme at the congress, which resulted in the establishment of youth sessions and, after the congress, a summer school for more than 80 students. This became a sustained tradition at many ISPRS events and congresses and led to the establishment of a student consortium. […]
