Integrity in the domain of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) has been understood as the ability to provide timely warnings in case of a system failure causing a misleading user position. This concept of integrity has been imported from the aviation community: aviation services are 'safety-critical' and require an extremely high level of reliability of the satellite signals for its use for navigation.

The project activities will be based on three core aspects: the research and development of algorithms to mitigate the integrity faults in terrestrial environments, the development of a platform to monitor and store GNSS radio frequency signal samples and a reference trajectory, and an extensive real data collection campaign.
