Precise Positioning using the Fugro SpaceStarTM Service

GomSpace and Fugro are collaborating to offer world class position and timing accuracy on nanosatellite.

SpaceStar is the next generation technology for the provision of high-accuracy real-time navigation services in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), leveraging on the extensive Fugro expertise of delivering of GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) augmentation services for professional applications. SpaceStar allows to obtain sub-decimetre absolute positioning and nanosecond-level timing, on board a LEO satellite and in real-time without additional ground-infrastructure for the satellite operator. 

SpaceStar is based upon Fugro’s proven Precise Point Positioning (PPP) technique, including multi-constellation and multi-frequency GNSS technology with real-time GNSS orbit/clock corrections delivered via L-band signal from geostationary (GEO) satellites.
