  • Abstract
    GPS is very widespread and is about to see improvement with wide-area augmentation in various parts of the world. With GPS III on the horizon and Galileo apparently running late, the two systems will largely be competing for the same business - but with Galileo charging for most of its services. With little perception of added value in Galileo, it is likely to be facing a huge task in breaking into the location market. The quest would be easier if Galileo were to become an infrastructure project of a caring community rather than a commercial undertaking.
