PROJECT EUPOS EUROPEAN POSITION DETERMINATION SYSTEM

· Project initiated by the Berlin Senate Department for Urban Development supported by the European Academy of the Urban Environment (EA.UE), Berlin, Germany;

· A Founding (Steering) Committee was elected at the Conference in Berlin on 4-5 March 2002 to draw up the draft proposal of the European network to be established in the near future;

· Project consists in establishment of the multifunctional reference GNSS stations in C&CE countries;

· EUPOS network will contain about 420 stations in the area of 14 European countries.

CONCISE CHARACTERISTICS OF EUPOS (1)

The EUPOS stations will be permanently operating, multifunctional DGNSS reference stations.

The average distance between the stations will be about 70 km. Higher density may be required in conurbation. Existing reference station systems (e.g. EUREF, IGS) should be connected or incorporated.

The coordinates of the stations will be determined with high precision, both in ETRS 89 and in conventional geodetic reference systems by connecting to EUREF points as well as to the other control networks of the countries.

EUPOS will use the signals of Galileo as basis standard as soon as it is available and GPS as basis standard up to the complete availability of Galileo and as optional additional standard after complete availability of Galileo; also System GLONASS will be used as optional additional standard.

Page 7: European CGSIC International SubCommittee Meeting

CONCISE CHARACTERISTICS OF EUPOS (2)

Only high quality geodetic GNSS dual frequency receivers will be used at EUPOS® reference stations. Positions of reference station antennas will be checked regularly for any displacement

A common use of reference stations in neighbouring countries close to border areas will be taken into account. The reference stations will be networked with each other, even cross-border.

All participating countries will observe the unified standards or/and will build up their multi-functional systems fully compatible with future European system GALILEO.

EUPOS SUB-SERVICESPermanent DGNSS service EUPOS will maintain the following

sub-services:

• EUPOS DGNSS for real time or post processing DGNSS applications by code and code-phase measurements with metre up to sub-metre accuracy;

• EUPOS RTK for real time DGNSS applications by carrier phase measurements with centimetre accuracy;

• EUPOS Geodetic for DGNSS applications by phase measurements in static or kinematic mode with centimetre up to sub-centimetre accuracy.

ORGANISATION

The management of the project EUPOS is performed by:

• International EUPOS Steering Committee (ISC),

• National EUPOS Service Centres (NSC),• Workshops “EUPOS® – Multifunctional

GNSS Reference Station Systems for Europe”.

Page 13: European CGSIC International SubCommittee Meeting

Charter duties of the International EUPOS Steering Committee (ISC),

The main tasks of the ISC are: • coordination of the project actions and

management, • agreements with the NSC and manufactures,• dissemination of information, • organisation of EUPOS workshops and symposia,• clarification of technical questions and

standardisation, • organisation and coordination of software and

hardware tests and support in training the technical staff

Page 14: European CGSIC International SubCommittee Meeting

Charter duties of the National EUPOS Service Centre (NSC)

The main tasks of the NSC are: • planning, establishment and maintenance of the national EUPOS

network• contact with the International EUPOS Steering Committee and its office,• coordination of the interests and the activities of the national authorities

and other governmental bodies, • checking the integrity of the network, testing software and hardware in

agreement with the International EUPOS Steering Committee and their own interests,

• providing adequate information for the users about the status of the network,

• organisation of educational and training courses for the technical staff and the users,

• transferring the international development trends and contributes to the EUPOS developments.

Page 15: European CGSIC International SubCommittee Meeting

Charter duties of the Workshops on EUPOS

Workshops EUPOS will be organised by the International EUPOS Steering Committee once a year in Berlin as an information platform on a broader base

for• the necessary exchange of experiences

and information, • to discuss and create further

developments of EUPOS, • to increase the identification with the

system.

Page 16: European CGSIC International SubCommittee Meeting

EUPOS vs. Galileo

Expected advantages for Galileo:• Galileo gains a huge number of new users; more than 400

reference stations in 14 countries will work permanently using the Galileo system;

• By EUPOS Galileo will transfer the reference system to all users in Central and Eastern Europe;

• EUPOS will offer and guarantee the services of proper accuracy as recommended by the Galileo programme;

• EUPOS stations could be integrated into Galileo programme. Some selected EUPOS stations could be incorporated to the Galileo ground control segment.

Page 17: European CGSIC International SubCommittee Meeting

EUPOS vs. EUREF EPN

• EUPOS reference stations will be connected to the EUREF EPN;

• The EUPOS stations will be related to the ETRF system and will transfer the ETRF to all Central and Eastern European countries;

• Some selected EUPOS Processing Centres could serve as EPN Local Analysis Centres;

• International EUPOS Steering Committee will establish close cooperation links with the IAG (EUREF) Sub-Commission for Europe of the IAG Commission X on Global and Regional Geodetic Networks.

CONSULTATIONS

• European Commission Brussels;

• EU INTERREG IIIC East Joint Technical Secretariat, Vienna;

• UN Office of Outer Space Affairs (OOSA), Vienna.

Page 19: European CGSIC International SubCommittee Meeting

EC CONSULTATIONS• POSITIVE ASSESSMENTS:

- effective organisation and management of the project;- broad spectrum of services for geodesy and navigation;- EUPOS will use the signal of Galileo as basis standard as

soon as it is available ;- 14 countries participate in the project; - project covers about 20% of the area of Europe;- very short time (about 3 years) of realisation of the project.

Page 20: European CGSIC International SubCommittee Meeting

EC CONSULTATIONS• NEGATIVE ASSESSMENTS:– very high cost of the project

(1st version about 900 stations 100 M Euro);– in the project participate countries that have different relations to the

European Union;

• EU SUGGESTIONS:– to reduce costs of the project by reducing number of stations;– to divide the project into some parts for group of countries that can

use the same support of EC programmes (ETDF, ISPA, CARDS, TACIS, PHARE, INTERREG).

Page 21: European CGSIC International SubCommittee Meeting
