NAPEOS Training Course

PosiTim has organized annual NAPEOS training courses on the Canary Island of Gran Canaria in close cooperation with our local partner Soluciones Avanzadas Canarias S.L from 2010 to 2012. Since 2013, on request of ESA, the annual NAPEOS training courses take place at the ESA/ESOC premises in Darmstadt, Germany.

As PosiTim we are also interested and willing to give NAPEOS training courses on your premises. Contact us to arrange the details.

Training Course Schedule

The NAPEOS training course will span 5 days. The morning sessions, from 9 to 12 hours, will be theoretical sessions and the afternoon sessions, from 14-17 hours, will be computer "hands-on" sessions.

In the theoretical sessions the participants will learn the basics of GNSS processing but with a strong focus on how this is implemented and applied in the NAPEOS software.

In the terminal sessions the participants will work with NAPEOS and process some simple examples which should give them a good overview and understanding on how NAPEOS works. Of course a one week course is not enough to make you an expert in GNSS processing but it will give you a "kick-start" into this exiting field.

    • Monday:
      09:00 – 12:00 NAPEOS installation, Introduction, First steps
      12:00 – 14:00 Lunch
