EGNOS Data Access Service (EDAS) provides ground-based access to EGNOS data through the Internet in near real-time. With a controlled access system, EDAS allows users to connect to a variety of services which provide raw GPS, GLONASS, and EGNOS data, plus EGNOS augmentation messages.
EDAS therefore not only assists users in accessing EGNOS satellite data but also supports other added-value services and research activities.
EGNOS ground stations pick up signals from GPS, GLONASS, and EGNOS satellites in geostationary orbit. They process the data and deliver it to EDAS. Users can then access relevant positioning and navigation data stored on EDAS for a variety of applications.
Other EGNOS services
EGNOS Open Service (OS) provides free and accessible use of EGNOS services to any user equipped with a GPS/SBAS-compatible receiver.
The EGNOS Safety of Life (SoL) assisted service for Maritime Users (ESMAS) is the first Satellite-based Augmentation System (SBAS) service tailored to maritime users.
The EGNOS Safety of Life (SoL) Service improves the accuracy and reliability of GPS, and soon, Galileo, and provides timely alerts when navigation performance degrades.
