The objective of MAGNIFIC is the promotion of an African EGNOS and of the Galileo Early services with EGNSS awareness.<\/p>\n

The market sectors of MAGNIFIC covers strategic domains including the export of EGNOS for Africa and key priority applications identified in the GSA Action plan on GNSS applications: road, aviation, maritime, precision agriculture\/environment protection, civil protection and surveillance, and LBS.<\/p>\n

In particular, MAGNIFIC proposes to demonstrate to African Stakeholders the benefits of EGNOS and Galileo by means of 6 field trials in Africa and a EGNSS international conference:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Airport surface vehicle using EGNOS integrity and interference monitoring (Dakar, Maputo)<\/li>\n
  2. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Oil exploitation with innovative EGNSS algorithms to mitigate scintillation (Angola)<\/li>\n
  3. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Highly secured multi-modal transport using EGNSS tracking and Galileo SAR (Cameroun, Tchad)<\/li>\n
  4. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Flight using SBAS procedures with real EGNOS corrections for Africa (Dakar, Lome)<\/li>\n
  5. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Natural resources analysis with accurate vertical positioning (EGNSS PPP in Togo)<\/li>\n
  6. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Secured Maritime transport using new generation wide spectrum GALILEO SAR signal (Gabon).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
