The article describes the possibilities of using RTKLIB, a software for GNSS data processing and analysis, in aviation. The structure and operating principles of the application are presented, along with its capabilities. The EGNOS system and one of its services, Safety-of-Life, are characterized. The results of studies aimed at determining the flight trajectory of an aircraft using the EGNOS system and one of the software modules, RTKPOST, are also described.Satellite navigation is becoming increasingly popular in aviation applications.
This is due to the possibility of rapid implementation of such solutions and the low financial expenditure of such an implementation compared to other, classic navigation systems (e.g., ILS). Since March 2, 2011, the Safety-of-Life service, which is part of the EGNOS system supporting onboard aircraft navigation instruments, has been operational. (…)
