ABOUT THE PROJECT
Description
Different key objectives have been identified by EC in the ITT:
Review results of other projects/initiatives
With the objective of capitalizing previous results from other EGNSS projects which can facilitate the penetration of EGNOS and Galileo in UAS market, both for the Open and Specific categories
Identify user needs
To capture Unmanned Traffic Management (UTM) service providers and operators’ needs in complex operations, including (but not limited to) Beyond Visual Line-of-Sight and urban cases.
Gap analysis
To perform a gap analysis between the elements already implemented in EGNSS Programmes and the needs for a fast acceptance as an additional service in U-Space.
Impact analysis
To perform impact analysis in the service provision layer for the facilitation of the use of EGNSS in U-Space and, more specifically, for the mitigation of risks in the Specific Category.
Implementation of API for EGNSS
To define and implement an Application Programming Interface (API) for EGNSS which could be called upon by UTM service providers, UAS designers or UAS systems developers, and integrated in existing commercial solutions.
Proof of Concept
To perform proof of concept by means of execution flight trials in a complex environment (Specific Category). These trials are aimed at demonstrating the added value for drone operations of the measures implemented at service provision level and the new EGNSS API.
Awareness and contribution to standardisation/regulation
To perform a set of awareness actions that will be complemented with the contribution to standardisation and regulation activities, to maximize the possibilities that the proposed services are implemented as a U-Space service.

Sugus Project presentation and outcomes video
Today we are happy to share a video on the SUGUS project, produced to present the project itself and its outcomes. As you can see in the video, as part of the project, a new functionality has been identified as key to cover most of the identified UAS and U-Space operational needs: the GNSS Performance Read more about Sugus Project presentation and outcomes video[…]
SuguS Flight Trials
The 6th and 7th of July, Project SUGUS performed the planned flight trials in CATEC (Villacarrillo). These trials are a proof of concept to analyse and assess the performances of the proposed EGNSS service for U-Space. The collected information is currently being analyzed to demonstrate and corroborate the benefits already partially identified during their execution. Read more about SuguS Flight Trials[…]
2nd Advisory Board Celebrated
Last Tuesday 29 June we held the second SuguS Advisory Board meeting. The objective of the Advisory Board is to provide guidance to the project on fundamental aspects, specifically giving feedback on the basis of the outcomes that have been produced since the celebration of the first Advisory Board meeting (28/10/2020) so far, particularly the Read more about 2nd Advisory Board Celebrated[…]
New appointments for SUGUS
By July 6th and 7th, SuguS Consortium will execute a flight trial as proof of concept to analyse and assess the performances of the implemented EGNSS service for U-Space by integrating the developed EGNSS API and demonstrate the added value of the service provision elements identified during the project. The flight trial will be held Read more about New appointments for SUGUS[…]
2nd SUGUS Advisory Meeting
SuguS Consortium is pleased to announce that our 2nd Advisory Meeting will be held virtually on Tuesday, June 29th. The meeting is aimed at analyzing previous outcomes and collecting suggestions and recomendations for the coming flight trial. More details will be published afterwards.
SUGUS Project paper to be presented at IONGNSS 2021
Under the scope of its dissemination activities, some weeks ago the SUGUS project submitted to the IONGNSS 2021 organization the abstract of a paper on the project. We can now proudly announce that our abstract has been accepted by the technical commission, so we will enjoy a great place to present SUGUS. ION GNSS+ is Read more about SUGUS Project paper to be presented at IONGNSS 2021[…]
