Introduction
GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System ) is a system of satellites that provide autonomous geo-spatial positioning with global coverage. It allows small electronic recievers to determine their location (longitude, latitude, altitude) to within a few metres using time signal transmitted along LOS by radio from satellites. GNSS includes Core Systems and Strengthen Systems.

Strengthen Systems
Global Satellite Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) : Omnistar , StarFire. Regional SBAS: WAAS (U.S.), EGNOS (EU), MSAS (Japan) and GAGAN
(India).
Regional Satellite Navigation Systems : China's Beidou, India's yet-to-beoperational IRNSS, and Japan's proposed QZSS.
Regional scale GBAS: CORS networks. Local GBAS: a single GPS reference station operating Real Time Kinematic (RTK) corrections.
