The 746th Test Squadron (746 TS) recently completed qualification testing on the F-22 Raptor’s Global Inertial Navigation System (GINS). The program is the second of two iterations of major test efforts the 746 TS has conducted on the system since 2001…
From the early days of the development of basic navigational software built into satellite navigational receivers, it has been noted that for the sake of simplicity and a number of other reasons, this navigational software is often based on methods of limited accuracy [1]. It is surprising that even nowadays the use of navigational software is still used in a loose manner, sometimes ignoring basic principles and adopting oversimplified…
During a disaster, situational awareness can mean the difference between life and death. Satellites provide reliable and rapid communication, observation and positioning tools, especially when crucial on-the-ground infrastructure is damaged. Risk management activities also benefit greatly from space-based data…
The idea of a software receiver is to sample the analog input signal as close to the antenna as possible and to implement the complete the data processing in software. Thus, the hardware is reduced to the minimum while all the digital signal processing is done by the mean of a microprocessor…
The development and deployment of the European Satellite Based Augmentation System EGNOS followed by the development of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Galileo, that is currently under deployment, definitely represent the largest technological initiative promoted by the European Union so far. While designing and setting up its…

In the historical background section on the ISPRS site it says, “There is no clear-cut distinction between photogrammetry and remote sensing, and it is for this reason that the Society changed its name in 1980.” What then is the individual significance of ‘photogrammetry’ and ‘remote sensing’ for ISPRS?
In a unique collaboration between national space agencies, the US and Japan began combining elements of their satellite resources to increase a critical type of Earth observation data. The partnership will more than double the quantity of this data that is used to explore earthquake hazards, forest declines, and changing water…
Lockheed Martin has nearly finished with critical design review for the nextgeneration of the GPS satellite. Its team working on the GPS III satellite constellation was on schedule for the critical design review phase of the program. The team has finished 26 of the 65 CDRs for the program. Overall space vehicle…
