Eric: Created Page + Added Basic Sections/Info

2020-02-15T21:00:57Z

Created Page + Added Basic Sections/Info

New page

=Basics=
*This Page Lists All of the Various [[Navigational Satellite Constellations]] in order to organize their pages, and to make selection of systems easier for projects

=Global=
*These can be used anywhere on earth, although they may still favor zones for coverage
==GPS==
*The Original, Worldwide, yet some regions require additional networks to receive proper coverage (See Regional Neteworks) (USA Owned and operated)
*[[GPS]]

==GLONASS==
*Russian Owned and Operarted (Provides better coverage of Area Near the earth's poles, but lesser accuracy overall)
*[[GLONASS]]

==Galileo==
*EU owned and operated
*May be more accurate the GPS but has similar coverage
*Newer so some issues associatesd to it being new (there was an outage for a while in 2019)

==BDNSS==
*China Owned and Operated
*In a sort of transition between regional coverage to worldwide
*Public Accuracy is a Few Meters (2.5-3 depending on if in Asia, or Elsewhere respectively
*Military has an encrypted cm level channel (Similar to early GPS before the public was allowed accuracy)
*[[BDNSS]]

=Regional=
*These allow for regional use (typically the country that owns it, or a local effort by countries that use it) or higher accuracy and/or covarage for existing systems such as GPS, in the latter case this is a method of [[GNSS Enhancement]]

==IRNSS==
*Indian Regional System
*May expand into a worldwide system as the [[GINS]]
*[[IRNSS]]

==QZSS==
*Japan's Regional System
*As of now, no plans to expand into a worldwide system (Most likely due to standing with USA as an ally and thus no need to be independant from a potentially tactial system)
*[[QZSS]]

=See Also=
*[[GNSS Enhancement]]
*[[RTK]]
