2. Few words on European GNSS What is EGNOS? EGNOS 2 ROAD Findings Conclusions

3. The European GNSS Global Navigation System Initial Operational Capability, from 2014 will provide: - Open service - Public Regulated Service -Search and Rescue Service And permit to experiment: - Commercial Service - Safety of life Service FIRST LAUNCH 20/10/2011 Satellite Based Augmentation System Open Service: operational since October 2009 Safety of Life service: operational since March 2011 EDAS: ground distribution of EGNOS corrections (experimental service) European coverage, under extension in other regions

4. The European GNSS Agency Preparing the Market for European Satellite Navigation Systems (EGNOS and Galileo): ♦ Market knowledge ♦ Research and Development ♦Co-marketing and support to early adopters Public European organisation, shared by European Commission and the 27 Member States

7.  EGNOS Open Signal added value   enhanced accuracy in the position  EGNOS Commercial Serivce/EDAS added value  higher availability of the enhanced accuracy  qualification/ confidence in the position (so called “protection level”) GPS SBAS (EGNOS) What is provided by EGNOS?

8. 2009  EGNOS not known in Road sector  Very few EGNOS enabled automotive receivers 2011  Leading service and technology providers start knowing EGNOS  Early adopters in dangerous goods  An exhaustive project from EC and trial results from R&D  Most automotive receivers are EGNOS enabled Availability of EGNOS for Road applications

10. EGNOS 2 road Project EGNOS2road project was run to provide a technical and economical evaluation of the use of EGNOS/ Galileo wrt GPS for two road extra-urban and urban applications: –Road charging –Tracking & tracing of professional fleets EGNOS2road has been funded by the European Commission – The project has been finalised in August 2011 – The results are being presented now to major stakeholders

11. Business cases Extra-urban business cases:  Road charging  Tracking & tracing of third-party service fleets Urban business cases:  Tracking & tracing of touristic coaches  Tracking & tracing/ monitoring of access/ circulation in Limited Traffic Zone (LTZ)  Tracking & tracing of Local Public Transport fleets operated by a Service Provider  Management and monitoring of vehicles for goods delivery in a large urban area, according to the local regulation Involvement of two road operators:  Extra-urban/ Società Autostrada Tirrenica  Urban/ City of Rome

12. Trial campaign (1/3) Conducted along extra-urban and urban road networks/ driving environments/ critical and interesting stretches Using EGNOS-ready technology available on the market:  GPS/EGNOS off-the-shelf receivers and antennas  Commercial device for the automotive markets  Proven solution EGNOS CS/EDAS enabled

13. Trial campaign (2/3)  Different types of GPS/EGNOS receivers/ antennas  Different types of vehicles

14. Trial campaign (3/3)  Different critical points and interesting stretches Close/ parallel roads Intersection Ramp LTZ gate

15. EGNOS CS/EDAS processing Value-Added Service Provider EGNOS msg Positions and raw data Corrected positions and Protection level Measurements of:  Accuracy of the position wrt to a reference trajectory (true path)  “Protection level” providing the qualification/ level of confidence in the position (thanks to the processing of EGNOS integrity)

16. EGNOS performances wrt GPS EGNOS OS and EGNOS CS/EDAS key performance values (average) for horizontal accuracy and protection level EGNOS OS  higher accuracy wrt GPS EGNOS CS/EDAS  higher accuracy wrt GPS + qualification/ confidence on the position Number of positions for EGNOS CS/EDAS processing Extra-urban environments Urban environments Extra-urban environments Urban environments

17. EGNOS added value in extra-urban roads True path  Enhanced accuracy and “protection level” provided with EGNOS allow to:  Distinguish two close/ parallel roads of different networks, typically tolled and not-tolled stretches (e.g. motorway very close and parallel to secondary lane, motorway and secondary lane crossing each other)  Distinguish the position of the vehicle just after/ before a motorway intersection or ramp near the gates

18. EGNOS added value in urban roads True path  Enhanced accuracy and “protection level” provided with EGNOS allow to:  Distinguish close/ parallel roads in various LTZ areas where different rules/ pricing schemes are applied  Distinguish roads in dense urban areas inside/ outside the LTZ areas  Monitor in real-time vehicles itineraries and stops, in line with permits  Have a reliable positioning of urban regulated fleets

19. Few words on European GNSS What is EGNOS? EGNOS 2 ROAD Findings Conclusions

20. Summary of EGNOS 2 ROAD Key findings Positive feedbacks on EGNOS use from both road operators: EGNOS OS added value is the enhanced accuracy at zero costs in new systems  EGNOS Open Signal is recommended in new systems for all extra-urban and urban business cases EGNOS CS/EDAS added value is the enhanced accuracy and guarantee/ qualification, that has the potential to:  bring economical benefits  give service robustness for starting a type approval (i.e. legal use) EGNOS CS/EDAS enabled solutions are proven for road applications and ready to use. EGNOS CS/EDAS economical benefits depend on the business case (e.g. network extension, number of vehicles, etc.)

21. Manufacturers are already ensuring that their products are ‘Galileo ready’  Galileo is interoperable with GPS  Together they will offer enhanced accuracy and availability of position in the urban environment  Galileo will reach Initial Operating Capability (IOC) 2014/15  18 new satellites will already offer much benefit  The Open Service (OS) Interface Control Document (ICD) was published in 2010  New receivers being purchased today need to be future proofed and made ready for the availability of Galileo in just a few years
