The Galileo satellite navigation system is one of the most important European innovation projects. It is of great significance to the
economy, because it provides the basis for numerous satellitebased products and services.
Forum for Satellite Navigation
The ”Forum for Satellite Navigation” provides nationwide support
to the cooperation between the regional initiatives that exist in
Germany. The platform is designed to provide a wide-scale
exchange of experience and information and result in the nationwide interconnection of businesses, the scientific community,
trade associations, public authorities and users. In this context,
the Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Affairs sees
itself as a facilitator and patron of the German ”Forum for
Satellite Navigation”.

The German Galileo Test & Development Environment – GATE
GATE is a unique real-world development and test environment, to
prepare for the challenges of the future Galileo/GPS navigation
markets. GATE is considered to be a necessary intermediate step for
Galileo, which will provide the opportunity for receiver, application
and service developers to perform realistic field-tests of hardware
and software for Galileo at an early stage.
Initiative in the Saarland to link up and pool skills in the field of
navigation technologies and geodata. The working party encourages and promotes the exchange of ideas and information between companies, institutions of higher education and authorities
based in the region in order to stimulate innovative applications
and research and development activities.

Saarland Navigation and Geodata Working Party
InnoMAG is a planned collaborative project which is designed to
consolidate national and regional initiatives in the maritime sector,
thereby creating a broad basis for the development of commercially
viable products, systems and services based on EGNOS and Galileo.
It will also make contributions towards standardization and certification.
NAVISAT – Precise Navigation
MercatorPark is a virtual market place for companies and organizations in the aerospace and ITC industries. Its interdisciplinary structure
promotes cross-industry business development, marketing, communication and sales. The monthly MercatorPark Newsletter reaches
over 15.000 selected subscribers in industry, commerce, the military,
science, government bodies, politics and the media.
The main emphasis is put on supporting commercial applications
and services based on present and future satellite navigation systems (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo) by integrating satellite positioning
technologies in applications. In addition to pooling the skills that
exist in North Rhine-Westphalia in the field of satellite navigation,
it seeks to promote a cross-sectoral exchange of ideas, knowledge
and information among its members.

GAUSS – Certification of Safety-of-Life Sat Nav Applications
Establishing Sat Nav in Baden-Württemberg
Galileo and GNSS procedures for safe and accurate navigation.
Development and trialling of applications at the Port of Rostock,
using the experimental SEAGATE and ALEGRO infrastructures, which
are currently being established.
The Galileo Centre for Safety-of-Life Applications, Certifications and
Services (GAUSS) brings together the entire know-how of
Braunschweig Research Airport. The focus of its activities is the
certification of satellite-based applications in Germany and Europe.
The aim of the Baden-Württemberg Galileo Forum is to establish
satellite navigation in this federal state and make it accessible to
a large number of people in the business and scientific communities.
