Objectives of the consultation

This consultation aims at collecting feedback from the general public about an advertisement for EGNOS. The key objective is to check if what is understood by the viewers is in line with the Commission's communication objectives. If that is not the case, corrections will be made for the final version of the advertisement.

EGNOS (European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) is the new European satellite navigation system that corrects GPS errors, making the GPS signals much more accurate. The EGNOS system, composed of a network of ground stations and transponders aboard three satellites, is the first infrastructure owned by the European Union. The EGNOS signal is also the first real European public service. It is therefore key that the Commission communicates widely about this new system and service and does it in an effective way.
