12<strong>Galileo</strong> – Signalling for youEurope's globalnavigation satellite systemwill bring a huge range of public<strong>and</strong> commercial opportunities.Some potential applications have beenidentified, but when it comes to harnessingthe full potential of <strong>Galileo</strong>, innovativeentrepreneurs <strong>and</strong> researchers have theopportunity to improve the waywe work <strong>and</strong> play.Below are just a few examples of how<strong>Galileo</strong> will respond to increasingneeds of the user.Location based servicesDigital cameras, mp3 players, your mobilephone or laptop – all these could be fittedwith accurate position signalling receivers.Dedicated positioning devices will help usfind our way in an increasingly busy world.TransportBy plane, train or automobile, <strong>Galileo</strong> willmake transport more comfortable <strong>and</strong> saferthan ever – whether it is by identifying trafficjams or helping the aviation industry,your transport will be enhanced by <strong>Galileo</strong>.Energy resourcesHigh-resolution surveys of possible drilling siteswill show if a potential site is geologically stable.Repairs to the electricity grid can be perfectlysynchronised. Improvements to navigation <strong>and</strong> timesynchronisation will mean energy transport <strong>and</strong> distributionis more efficient than ever. <strong>Galileo</strong> – energising Europe.FinanceSecure data transfer, authenticity <strong>and</strong> confidentiality, data integrity– <strong>Galileo</strong> will play its part in the protection of data by using the latestauthentication techniques.
