Assessment of GNSS Position Integrity with the Use of Post-Processed EGNOS Data in the Area of Szczecin -Świnoujście Waterway

Abstract

Abstract GNSS measurements can be supplemented by the information available in EGNOS system even if one has only GNSS receiver that is not processing Satellite-Based Augmentation Systems data. The article describes how to obtain the variances of ranges to the satellites used for positioning when the final antenna position and satellites’ elevation and azimuths values are recorded. To verify how the resultant estimates of position error correspond to real errors the research based on GPS receiver was conducted.
