Poland takes part in Europe's firstsatellite navigation system

It is actually possible for everyone to know their coordinates to within an
accuracy of 1-2 metres using the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay
Service (EGNOS). EGNOS is based on a network of reference stations all over
Europe, and a new step towards implementing this network was the recent
inauguration of facilities in Poland.
