Abstract

Satellite Navigation and its applications are becoming more and more important. In Europe, the European Commission confirmed the public funding of the European Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Galileo. In this framework, new educational needs have arisen. A recently conducted survey has highlighted a general lack of educational material on GNSS-related subjects. The NAVKIT represents a first answer to the educational needs of the GNSS community. It has been designed to be a self-consistent tool for engineers or technicians not trained in navigation but it can be used also as supporting material in university lectures. The NAVKIT consists of audio-video lessons, two sets of exercises (solved exercises and problems statements), and a self-evaluation test. Ancillary parts are: Glossary, Bibliography and Questions&Answers section. The NAVKIT is HTML-based. It has been used during specific courses in Europe and in post-graduate courses in Asia. The tool was designed in a web 2.0 vision.
