The benefits are strongly impacted by the time elapsed from the year of EGNOS FOC and the
adoption of EGNOS.
In parallel with the EGNOS service coverage implementation, it is important to launch
preparatory activities so that to anticipate actions and reduce as much as possible this elapsed
time, e.g. trainings, promotion towards interested stakeholders and decision-makers,
participation to working groups established at EU-Euromed level to exchange experiences
