structures
• Interactive question and answer session
12:30- 14:00 Lunch
14:00- 15:30 Individual project presentations grouped according to theme,
including question and answer sessions
Project ideas will be presented in 2 parallel workshop sessions.
Each presentation will be allowed 20 minutes with a 10 minute
question period.
Session A:
1) Siine - Symbolic scheduling tool with location capability
2) Creative Learning Labs/ Games Atelier - LBS gaming
software for educational market
3) Mobile and secure payment solutions - University of
Nice/ Sophia Antipolis
4) India, a potentially large market to use GALILEO along
with existing GPS and GLONASS - Burdwan University
Session B:
5) SLR (Satellite Laser Ranging System) for Galileo
Ground Based Control Segment - University of Latvia
6) Proof of concept GNSS EGNOS/Galileo road user
charging payment service for urban cores - Skymeter Corp.
7) Certification of Galileo signal in space - NavCert GmbH
8) Application driven standardization within automotive -
NavCert GmbH
15:30- 16:00 Wrap up, Conclusions, Next steps

Session A:
1) Siine - Symbolic scheduling tool with location capability - Ed Maklouf
Siine is a "symbolic scheduler" – a mass-market tool that makes it easier
and faster to compose and process messages about time and
arrangements. Founding partner Ed Maklouf will demonstrate the
invention, suggest how it can lock in with positioning technology, and
present some of the research behind it.
2) Creative Learning Labs/ Games Atelier - Robbert Woltering
Creating Learning Labs is a non-profit educational foundation based in
Amsterdam. One of its projects is Games Atelier, a location-based
interactive game targeting school children that is played via mobile
phone. Games Atelier has developed software allowing the user to create
an original game in minutes. There are several game types that have
been made into templates. While schools have been the original target,
the technology would certainly have mass market potential in other
sectors as well.
3) Mobile and secure payment solutions - Jean Françoise Carrasco,
University of Nice/ Sophia Antipolis
The University of Nice/ Sophia Antipolis has emerged as a leader in both
developing and using mobile and secure payment solutions. The Sophia
Antipolis mobile cluster today hosts more than 400 companies in the
mobile & wireless industry and they have several proprietary payment
solutions that can be added to other applications, or work as standalones.
Mr. Carrasco will share with us his technology and outline
partnership opportunities.
4) India, a potentially large market to use GALILEO along with existing
GPS and GLONASS - Dr. Anindya Bose, Burdwan University
Availability and Reliability (AAR) of GALILEO signals from India would be
an interesting choice of study. GALILEO receiver(s) would be installed @
Burdwan University, in eastern part of India. Currently GIOVE-A & B
signals and GALILEO signals in future would be monitored for short and
long time spans in a systematic manner. Deliverables would be reports
generating confidence for potential GALILEO users from this sub
continent. Integration of GPS-GLONASS-GALILEO may be explored and
this low cost project would also increase international cooperation.

Session B:
5) SLR (Satellite Laser Ranging) system for Galileo Ground Based Control
Segment - Prof. Janis Balodis, University of Latvia
The idea is to design a prototype of an advanced SLR system for the
Galileo ground based control segment. The best experience and
achievements of Europe’s SLR teams would be implemented.
6) Proof of concept GNSS EGNOS/ Galileo road user charging payment
service for urban cores - Arnold Van Rongen, Skymeter Corp.
A key technical inhibitor to the use of GNSS metering for road-usercharging
(RUC), parking metering and pay-as-you-drive insurance inside
built-up cities is signal reliability due to tall buildings that introduces
positioning, distance and charging errors that map-matching cannot
remove completely. This puts time-distance-and-place RUC programs at
risk. We have developed a new approach that includes a combination of
signal processing, sensor fusion, spatial processing and GIS functions
that guarantees: “same trip = same distance” and “same trip = same
charge”. While this approach works effectively with GPS only – even
allowing us to distinguish lane of travel in many circumstances – we
propose to show that the approach is far improved by integrating Galileo
signals, permitting us to reliably distinguish lane of travel with an 80 EUR
device, even in the urban core.
7) Certification of Galileo signal in space - Martin Grzebellus, NavCert GmbH
Provide the next level of concretization for the Galileo SIS certification.
Special attention here is to fulfill requirements of all domains not only of
aviation as with EGNOS. Goal should be to define Safety Case A,
evaluate certification of COTS elements and analyze existing databases
to qualify one to be used in the certification process.
8) Application driven standardization within automotive - Martin Grzebellus,
NavCert GmbH
Main focus is on using existing standardization groups to include new
aspects derived from GNSS. Main focus here is to define standards for
completely new applications like:
• Insurance: pay as you drive
• city council: management of parking spaces in rural areas
• Highway operator: management of parking sites for trucks at highways
• CO2 management: communication between car and traffic lights to
reduce break and acceleration phases

EuroTeleServ 2 nd Galileo Call Workshop
19 June 2008, Château de Betzdorf, Luxembourg
Security Check: There is a security checkpoint that must be cleared before
entering the SES Astra premises. The guard will admit the registered
participants, as well as indicate parking areas and the location of the workshop.
Language: The official language of the workshop is English.
Accommodation: The hotel Simon’s Plaza (www.simons-plaza.com) is offering
a special rate for participants of the workshop for Euro 125 (Single Room incl.
Breakfast). The hotel is near the airport and close to the venue. Participants of
the workshop need to book the hotel by themselves.
Participation: The participation fee for extraordinary- and non- members
amounts to 250 EUR.
Expenses: Each participant has to bear his/her own expenses for
accommodation and travel. The organizing bodies will not reimburse attendees
for their expenses.
Luxembourg Airport: The distance between the airport and the premises of
SES Astra is 18 km (15 min. by car). The quickest way is by taxi.
Driving Directions:
- exit the highway at exit #12 (Flaxweiler)
- turn right onto Route de Luxemburg at the crossroads
- after 1 km, turn left onto Rue de la Grotte
- follow the main street through the village of Betzdorf
- there is an underpass, go through it, then turn right at the next opportunity
