Presentation by Reinhard Blasi of the European GNSS Agency during CAPIGI 2011 in Amsterdam on 5 April 2011.

1. EGNOS in Precision Agriculture: an affordable entry Technology for a wide Range of Applications Capigi, Amsterdam, 05 April 2011 Reinhard Blasi, Market Development Officer, GSA

6. Galileo Implementation Plan Galileo System Testbed v1 Validation of critical algorithms Galileo System Testbed v2 2 initial test satellites In-Orbit Validation 4 IOV satellites plus ground segment Initial Operational Capability Early Services for OS, SAR, PRS 18 satellites 2003 2005 2011/12 2014/2015 Full Operational Capability All services, 30 satellites 2019/2020 In order for Galileo to be recognized by the downstream market as the second satellite navigation system of choice it is key to deliver early services as soon as 2014/2015.

10. Why EGNOS in Agriculture? High Precision, Low Cost Link to Video of EGNOS in Agriculture

12. EGNOS has a wide range of applications … EGNOS application domain c.1m Low-value crop cultivation (e.g. cereals) and low-accuracy operations (fertilising and reaping) c.2.5m Field measurement and boundary mapping and updating Legislation/ management c.2.5m Land parcel identification/ geo-traceability, post harvest pick-up and supervised tracking of livestock, manure, etc. Agro-logistic 2-5m Individual livestock positioning and virtual fencing Dairy c.2cm High-value crop cultivation (e.g. potatoes and vegetables) and/ or precision operations (sowing and transplanting) Arable Required accuracy level Application field Application category

15. GNSS technologies impact differently on each phase depending on the cultivation structure pag. Activity Parameter For each cultivation GNSS technology impact on cultivation with markers 2,36% 2,36% 2,49% GNSS technology impact on cultivation with no marker 2,36% 2,36% 3,55% 3,55% 2,36% Source: Experts’ interviews; Centre wallon de Recherches agronomiques EGNOS benefit for steering guidance Soil preparation First Treatments Seeding Treatment after planting Harvesting Primary tillage Secondary tillage Fertilizer application Seeding Plant protection products application and fertilizers Harvesting Labour Hour, Hours of usage of the machine Labour Hour, Hours of usage of the machine Labour Hour, Hours of machine usage Nitrogen, Phosphate, Potassium fertilizer Labour Hour, Hours of usage of the machine Labour Hour, Hours machine usage Herbicide, fertilizer and pesticides quantities Labour Hour, Hours of usage of the machine
