Best apps for navigating indoors: satnav without satellites
How to find your way around airports, shopping malls and other large indoor spaces.We all use satnavs, but they don’t work indoors. We investigate some apps and new technology that could help us find our way in airports, shopping malls and any large buildings. It’s a first-world problem, but a problem nevertheless: How do you navigate an indoor space when GPS does not work?  While it may not yet be ideal, as with everything these days, there’s an app for that – or rather several apps. President of the Royal Institute of Navigation, Dr Roger MacKinley, explained why GPS does not work for indoor navigation:
China to Join Effort on Aircraft Satnav Standards
Europe’s EGNOS augmentation system sharpens the accuracy and reliability of GPS signals so they can safely be used for landing approaches across a growing number of European airports. But aviation is a global enterprise — so the aim is to develop a seamless network of augmentation systems in future. That is the task of an international group of experts, the Satellite Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) Interoperability Working Group (IWG), whose 27th  meeting took place in Tampa, Florida, September 8-10, hosted by the Institute of Navigation.
