GNSS Regional Plan - Concept (1/4)

• GNSS Regional Plan defines
• A shared Euro-Med Plan for the progressive
  introduction and development of GNSS services in
  the MEDA area
• In next 5-10 years, through EGNOS towards Galileo
• and for various user/application domains, in the
  transport and non-transport domains, for
  safety-related and non safety-related uses
• Targeted Audience MEDA Decision-makers
• GNSS Regional Plan
• Identifies service enablers
• Sets priorities
• Proposes strategy
• Defines action plan
• Identifies possible funding schemes

GNSS Regional Plan - Concept (2/4)

• IMPORTANT!
• The GNSS Regional Plan is conceived as a
  Euro-Mediterranean shared implementation of GNSS
  services in the MEDA region
• It addresses policy and institutional measures,
  as well as technical, market and financial
  issues.
• It is discussed by Mediterranean countries and
  will form the basis of a common approach to
• The development of GNSS services in the region
• The identification of investment opportunities in
  the perspective of EGNOS (short-term) and Galileo
  (long-term)

5
GNSS Regional Plan - Concept (3/4)

• GNSS Regional Plan elaboration
• Diagnostic phase - Present status and needs at
  regional, sub-regional and national level,
  obstacles and enablers, opportunities, trends and
  existing strategies in support of
• Classification phase - Defining measures and
  actions per country, at regional and sub-regional
  levels
• Financial phase - Evaluating costs related to
  measure and action, social and economical
  benefits generated by the use of EGNOS - now -
  and Galileo - in the future
• Prioritisation phase - Setting priorities for
  measures and actions, plans per country, at
  regional and sub-regional levels (timing at 5-10
  years)

GNSS Regional Plan - Methodology (1/6)

• Close interactions with MEDA actors
• Various iterations for
• Main markets/ application domains and
  applications
• Key markets/ application domains and applications
• Priority markets/ application domains and
  applications
• At different levels
• Country
• Sub-regional
• Regional
• Depending on the market and application typology,
  present policies, needs

11
GNSS Regional Plan - Methodology (2/6)

• Tools for MEDA close interaction
• Questionnaires circulation to the METIS PoCs
• Two forums on Civil Aviation and Maritime
• Training sessions
• Demonstrations in the specific market/
  application domain and application (trial
  campaign and promotional events)
• Two workshops, the first today, the second will
  be in Cairo
• Other events under planning
• The elaboration of the GNSS Regional Plan is
  conceived to take profit of any possibility to
  interact with MEDA actors, who are invited to
  review, discuss and comment it

12
GNSS Regional Plan - Methodology (3/6)

• Questionnaires
• Various questionnaires as effective way to
  interact and gather inputs from MEDA actors
• Different questionnaires targeted on specific
  information
• Questionnaire on the existing and planned
  infrastructures to gather information for
  D01/D03, circulated at early stage of the project
• Questionnaire to gather GNSS service requirements
  versus regional needs for D02, circulated at
  early stage of the project (it will be
  re-circulated to the MEDA actors involved in the
  GNSS service demonstrations)
• Questionnaires on different markets for the GNSS
  Regional Plan circulated and used for forum
  establishment
• Three steps
• 1. Questionnaire circulation using the METIS PoCs
  via email
• 2. Collection and analysis of answers
• 3. Dedicated interviews, in case necessary
