Galileo OSNMA (open service navigation message authentication) is a cryptographic system that is used to authenticate the navigation message (satellite ephemeris and clocks, etc.) in the Galileo GNSS. I have spoken before about OSNMA in this blog, since I implemented an OSNMA library in Rust a few years back. A good introduction to OSNMA for readers unfamiliar with how it works can be found in Bert Hubert‘s short series of OSNMA posts. The OSNMA system is currently in the public observation...| Daniel Estévez

By bert hubert bert@hubertnet.nl / @bert_hu_bert / https://galmon.eu/ Late July 2019, Galileo, “the European GPS” suffered from a week long outage. I’m a proud European, and I think we should have our own well-functioning navigation system, so I tried to figure out what was going on. Surely someone was monitoring this stuff in public? I come from the internet where we monitor all the things, if someone asked for it or not.| Bert Hubert's writings

A conventional GPS (Global Positioning System) or GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receiver has an accuracy that is at best 1 or 2 metres (3 or 6 feet), which is insufficient for some applications, most notably land surveys, and self-driving agricultural vehicles.

Welcome to the Galmon project! Our goals are to monitor the major Global Navigation Satellite Systems, including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou, but also Space Base Augmentation Systems like WAAS, EGNOS and GAGAN. Galmon is an open source & open data project with a community of over 30 station operators running more than 50 receivers. Some history of the project may be found in the second part of this blog post, and on this page on the big Galileo 2019 outage.| Bert Hubert's writings
The European Global Navigation Satellite System Galileo has recently been suffering from frequent "almost disruptions", most likely partially due to Corona, and possibly also due to Brexit, but in any case due to some historical stinginess. Before I explain what is going on, I should hasten to say that most days of the week, Galileo is working well for most users. But for example, Monday the 28th of September, one satellite was off by a stunning 5 meters.| Bert Hubert's writings
