HASlib: an open-source decoder
HASlib is an open-source software package intended to facilitate the adoption of the Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS) with legacy receivers and processing software that lack native support for HAS. The use of HAS is free of charge and enables up to 20 cm horizontal position accuracy with the Precise Point Positioning (PPP) approach.

GEMOP: Galileo and EGNOS Monitoring Of Performances by Member States
The GEMOP project monitors the performance of the Galileo and EGNOS positioning systems. The project is funded by the European Union Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA), and there are 26 research institutes involved in the consortium. Finnish Geospatial Research Institute provides satellite positioning data from Finland and computes performance indicators related to the Galileo satellite availability and positioning accuracy in ranging domain.
