Presentation

The purpose of this page is to present:

  • The different technological solutions for aeronautics geolocation in terms of:
    • data transmission
    • installation on board of an aircraft
  • The advantages and disadvantages of each type of solution
  • the magnitudes of the purchase and operating costs (excluding setting costs)

Geolocation principles

  • A mobile device (in our case an aircraft) is equipped with a position receiver (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, ...) in order to get its location in three dimensions
  • And with a transmitting device to send this position to a ground station
  • This ground station sends the location data to a server accessible from the internet network for its use by software solutions including mapping applications to display the position of the aircraft.
