Procuring the Public/Private Partnership
Galileo's World
With Galileo, the European Commission ventures into new areas, not only in satellite navigation, but also in funding of large-scale initiatives.

Integrating GNSS
Navigating the City
A new technique for urban, suburban, and indoor navigation uses GNSS data to initialise and periodically correct an inertial sensor system. This significantly reduces power consumption in a handheld positioning device, and provides accurate positions to driving and walking users for 10 to 20 minutes between GNSS position fixes.
