EU Space Programme components, especially GNSS and Copernicus, are already exploited in the rail market segment, mainly in non-safety relevant applications and for monitoring of the railway infrastructure and its surroundings. There is also strong progress in the safety-relevant applications such as railway signaling, for what concerns potential adoption of GNSS for localization and eventually in outlook also EU SATCOM for supporting railway telecoms. The session will offer a reiteration of the currently known user requirements as well as state-of-the-art R&D projects in the area. The session will be focusing on exchange with rail stakeholders on the evolution of the requirements on GNSS, Copernicus and EU SATCOM and will offer possibility for discussion regarding the outlook on how can the EU Space Programme further contribute towards facilitation of safe and efficient railway transport in Europe.
