VEGA Group Creates a Simulation Platform for Galileo Data
VEGA Group Creates a Simulation Platform for Galileo Data Customer Challenge The European Union (EU) and the European Space Agency (ESA) needed to add powerful visualization capabilities to a simulation environment at the Galileo System Simulation Facility (GSSF). Solution Achieved In 2000, the European Union (EU) and the European Space Agency (ESA) initiated Galileo, an international project to design and deploy a global satellite navigation and positioning system specifically for the civilian applications of today and of the future. The Galileo project will include a combination of ground based systems, a constellation of 30 satellites, and a host of support services that will provide advanced technologies for transportation, energy, personal navigation, surveying, environmental and eme
