Lithuania’s FM: Russian GPS jamming of commercial flights 'too dangerous to ignore' (kyivindependent.com)

Baltic foreign ministers have warned that the suspected Russian jamming of GPS systems aboard commercial flights is "too dangerous to ignore." This comes after it was revealed that two Finnish aircraft were forced to turn around mid-journey in recent days.

Reading about . I get the “louder than the satellite” part, but shouldn’t there be some kind of cryptographic signature or something that lets you distinguish which is which, and some kind of token to guard against replay attacks? Is there? Maybe only in the encrypted US military version? (Guessing wildly…)

🗺️ Is there an app that keeps track of where you’ve walked on a map, so you can seek out streets you haven’t been down yet? Sort of a gamification of exploring one’s neighborhood (or someone else’s while traveling).

EDIT: Looks like https://citystrides.com/ is exactly what I was asking for. Also, Personal Heatmap in Strava subscription may work too. Thanks, everyone!

Oooh! I've just picked up a NavIC satellite while in London.
I'm used to picking up Chinese, Russian, and EU GPS - but I think this is the first time I've seen an Indian one.

C-V2X communication requires very precise timing so that transmitting devices can find and use their transmission time slot. We rely on GPS time for this.

For our V2X node (https://www.zero-iee.com/assets/products/pdfs/V2XNode_Product_Description.pdf), we are therefore trying out various GPS modules that provide us with the necessary 1PPS signal. This is not the case for all modules.

We are curious to see whether the AT6558R GPS chip proves itself and meets our requirements.

I decided to treat myself by buying a new satnav for the car. My car doesn't have a satnav built-in, which with hindsight is a good thing.

The new model is a Garmin DriveSmart 76. My main reason for upgrading was to get lifetime map updates, which are installed via WiFi, directly onto the satnav (no PC needed). For me this is a major benefit, as otherwise map updates require a Garmin app running on Mac or Windows. The new unit will replace a Garmin Nuvi 65 LM.

"Blogger Markus Johnson published a map of aircraft with jammed navigation on 15 and 16 March, claiming that at least 873 aircraft had their navigation jammed in that period."

Jamming #GPS signals from #Kaliningrad has become routine in what is meant to appear has rehearsal for an invasion of #Poland and #Lithuania. This is not a #War in some far away place.

The true reason why the #Anglican Church schism formed was the rejection of #Jerusalem as the center of the map via the prime meridian through first Greenwich.

Use of #GPS (operated by the US Space Force, clearly an invasion of Heaven), and all maps derived via WGS84 are unchristian #heresy.

We're all going to hell, but at least we can have Google Maps navigate us there I guess

Tite question les mastodoniens:

Pour la #randon j'utilise un #GPS #etrex22x. Je souhaite abandonner les piles AA alcalines pour l'alimenter et je cherche la meilleure solution.

J'emmène un panneau solaire Sunsclice 6W, une batterie externe nitecore NB10000.

d'après la doc Je peux aussi alimenter le GPS avec des piles NiMH ou lithium.

Je peux ajouter un chargeur d'accus mais faut que ce soit léger et peu encombrant.

Je cherche le meilleur compromis entre:

Tijdens al mijn wandelingen gebruik ik GPS op mijn mobiele telefoon. Zo weet ik precies waar ik heen moet als ik een ongemarkeerde wandelroute loop of als de routebeschrijving niet geheel duidelijk is. Ik krijg regelmatig de vraag wat is GPX en GPS, wat zijn GPX-bestanden, wat is GPS-wandelen, hoe doe je dat en wat heb je ervoor nodig. Je leest het in deze blog. Veel wandelplezier. 👇

Safety Improvements such as 's Navigation Message Authentication should be adopted faster, with GPS interference levels on the rise in Europe.

“On December 26, a large swathe of land and water between Växjö in the north, Stralsund and Neubrandenburg in the west, Łódź in the south, and Białystok in the east was red, indicating a GPS interference level of more than 10%”

Interesting footage from Victor Alegre, an A330 capitain at Iberia Airlines, experiencing interference.

> Spoofing overflying Arabia & Egypt FL360
At first comment IRS Position and GPS Position at same time: 1 degree error Latitude, 2 degrees error Longitude, 34.000 ft Altitude error causing GPWS PULL UP.

The Flight Management Guidance Envelope Computer (which can disable GNSS inputs) thinks the aircraft is too low, causing pull up warnings.
