EGNOS Open Service (OS) 15th Anniversary: Celebrating the Foundation of Europe’s First Satellite Navigation System


The 15 years of EGNOS Open Service (OS) highlights Europe’s leadership in building a robust satellite navigation system that has also become a worldwide reference to other SBAS (Satellite-Based Augmentation System) systems around the world.
