3. Project’s overview
GRALLE = Galileo-based Reliable Automatic and Low Latent Emergency Warning Service
Funded by the European Union
Call for tenders N° 536/PP/GRO/RCH/16/9261
Start date: Feb / Duration: 22 months
Objectives of the project :
To assess the potential interest for a global, reliable and efficient Emergency Warning Service (EWS) based on the Galileo infrastructure (eg broadcasting alerts/warnings using Galileo signals)

13. GEWS service capacity
Same message can be repeated with a period between 1 minute and 1 hour
The message repetition will be adapted to the possible arrival of new messages to be transmitted in the repetition interval, by reducing the number of satellites used for transmitting the repetition and/or by increasing the repetition period
A maximum of 2 different messages can be transmitted for the same local area (minimum radius circle)
GEWS can handled a maximum of 30 different messages at the same time, with the appropriate repetitions and latency

19. Project’s preliminary outcomes
Strong support & interest received from emergency management stakeholders during interviews & presentations.
Recurrent question is : When will it be available ?
Complementarity with the other Emergency Warning Systems is highlighted together with capability to access citizens all around the world even in the most remote areas
Impact on Galileo system is optimized in terms of operations and infrastructures
The service shall be as soon as possible delivered to European Union Countries
The service shall be made available to other countries from the EOC
Galileo GNSS chipset development and implementation in European products shall be favored to maximize the impact from EOC
