Galileo's World
, a publication of Advanstar Communications launched in November
1999, covers the development and use of the proposed European contribution to a
Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). That system is known as Galileo and
also incorporates the European Geostationary Navigation Satellite Service
(EGNOS), an augmentation system sometimes referred to as GNSS-1.
Galileo's World provides a high-quality magazine that can raise public awareness of and
support for GNSS and the opportunity it offers manufacturers and service providers to
bring new and improved solutions profitably to the marketplace, as well as the benefits
awaiting a wide variety of professional, scientific, and commercial end users.
The staff of Galileo's World has more than 11 years of experience in chronicling the news and applications of the Global Positioning System and
Russia's GLONASS system in the highly regarded magazine GPSWorld, the first and only monthly journal exclusively
covering GNSS technology. Advanstar Communication has also launched successful, widely read journals addressing related
applications in geographic information systems and
intelligent transport systems.
Advanstar editors and publishers have participated in 8 of the annual GNSS conferences (and
predecessor meetings) held during the past 10 years, as well as numerous other specialty events in
Europe. During this time, the company has reported extensively on the evolution of GNSS in GPS
World. Indeed, no other publishing company has provided as sustained and detailed a coverage of
GNSS.
Glen Gibbons, founding editor of GPS World and currently group editorial director for
Advanstar's geospatial business, also oversees the operation of Galileo's World.
Advanstar Communications, an international publishing company
with offices in the United Kingdom, France, and Germany, as well
as the United States, Latin America, and Asia, produces more than
100 publications and 100 conferences throughout the world.
