Galileo (satellite navigation)
Galileo is a global satellite navigation system developed by the European Union, similar to the American GPS. It uses a network of satellites orbiting Earth to provide precise location and timing information. The system allows users to determine their position anywhere on the planet with high accuracy, supporting various applications like navigation, mapping, and emergency services. Galileo's signals are designed to be highly reliable and resistant to interference, making it a valuable tool for both civilian and commercial use. It works in conjunction with other systems to improve global positioning accuracy and availability.
