Press Release: GSA awards 2009 Special Topic Prize at Galileo Masters competition

The European GNSS Supervisory Authority (GSA), on 21 October 2009, awarded its 2009 European Satellite Navigation Competition Special Topic Prize to a new precise outdoor navigation system for smart phones. The prize winners' 'Nogago' system exploits the unique properties of EGNOS (European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) and turns conventional smart phones into a full substitute for dedicated high-end consumer outdoor navigation devices, thereby enabling significant cost savings for consumers who already own a smart phone.
