The BELS Pproject: an opportunity for setting collaboration links between Europe and South East Asia in the field of GNSS

In 2016 the European Global Navigation Satellite System (EGNSS) Galileo should start initial services that will make it available for practical use together with other existing Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). South East Asia (SEA), which is the Region in the world with the highest multi-GNSS coverage, but has not developed any of them, is the ideal place to promote EGNSS solutions and related technologies to facilitate business while supporting sustainable development. This paper describes the opportunities offered by the project BELS to companies, institutions, researchers from Europe and SEA working in the field of GNSS. The project is funded by the European GNSS Agency (GSA) under the European Union’s Research Framework Programme Horizon 2020..
