ESSP’S MISSION
ESSP has been created in 2001 to operate the EGNOS system and provide Safety of Life services to different user communities. The EGNOS services in Europe are preparing those of the future GALILEO constellation.
EGNOS is a space augmentation to GPS. GPS typically provides 15m to 20m accuracy to the user. EGNOS provides 1m to 2m accuracy and additional performances such as integrity of information meeting aviation, terrestrial and maritime stringent requirements for some of their phases of navigation.
This website provides useful general information about EGNOS, and through its pages will guide the users through specific requirements, performances, trials to show the true benefits of Satellite Based Augmentation Systems.
