• Handover of exploitation phase to the European GNSS Agency (GSA)

• On-going selection of the Galileo Service Operator (GSOp)

Contract signature before end 2016 Handover of operations by mid 2017

• European GNSS Service Centre in Madrid

One-stop 'shop' for Galileo customers

• New Galileo Reference Centre in Noordwijk

Independent monitoring of Galileo performance, primarily reusing EU Member States infrastructure and competences

Galileo Service Provision

OS Navigation

Good ranging signals (3 m, better than 80% availability)

Excellent timing performance (30ns, better than 90%)

SAR Forward

Link

Contribution to COSPAS/SARSAT with shorter detection times (10min) and better localization accuracy

PRS Access Good "ranging" signals

Manual distribution of keys to PRS participants

Security Monitoring

Centralisation of system security events in GSMC for analysis and reporting

PERFORMANCE LEVELSBASED ON AVAILABLE INFRASTRUCTURE IN 2016

GALILEO SERVICE CENTRE WEBSITE USER VISITS

GSC figures (from 1st Jun 2013 to 15st April 2016):

• More than 71,000 visits from 181 different countries!

• 143 user requests handled and 91 NAGUs published

• 383 registered users on the GSC web portal

REGULATED APPLICATIONS

• Digital Tachograph– Adopted in March 2016 – Foresees use of Galileo and EGNOS– Same wording as in eCall

• World Wide Radio Navigation System – Recognition of Galileo as WWRNS– Maritime and Safety Committee – 11-20 May 2016

Commercial Service – Plan Maturing

• EU Regulations supporting the CS are under approval by EU Member States

• Proof of concept established – we know it works

• CS will offer :

– Authentication

– PPP

• Further refinements expected to the CS SIS before release to improve how the service is offered

EVOLUTION – GUIDING PRINCIPLES

• Users are central to the evolution:– User-driven evolution– Quality of the service – Backward compatibility– Timeliness of introduction– Gradual introduction

• Positioning wrt competitive environment– GNSS– Other terrestrial and user terminal based solutions

• A system optimised for service delivery

• Costs of development, deployment and operation shall be minimised:– Cost-effectiveness– Low complexity

EGNSS in the SPACE STRATEGY FOR EUROPE

• European Commission developing a Space Strategy for Europe

• Regarding European GNSS, the main directions are

17

Deliver reliable and state of the art services that match user needs

Ensure long term continuity of EGNOS and Galileo services and plan evolution

Support market uptake

Secure European industrial capacity

INTERNATIONAL

• Targeting excellence and compatibility

• Extensive bi-lateral cooperation efforts

• Continuous involvement in multilateral discussions at UN-ICG

• Cooperation in international regulatory and standardisation bodies

• Partnership with other SBAS providers for

future multi-constellation solutions
