Providing reliable, safe and secure space services is our daily business - and our passion. We are responsible for managing Europe´s biggest spacecraft constellation: the European Satellite Navigation System GALILEO. On behalf of the European Commission, we operate from our headquarters at the Galileo Control Center (GCC-D) in Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany. Thanks to the technical infrastructure we have implemented, we ensure 99,99% service availability. DLR GfR’s constellation operations services at GCC-D comprise 24/7 routine operations and maintenance the Galileo satellites and of the related ground segment infrastructure. From GCC-D we organize the operation of the globally distributed Galileo infrastructure, both on-ground and in-orbit, throughout all mission phases. This includes mission planning and flight dynamics services, efficient team training and management, reliable configuration monitoring and global service-level tracking and monitoring. With our international team of around 300 experts, we offer our customers excellent service and navigate the Galileo project with foresight into the future. At DLR GfR, we are furthermore dedicated to securing the future of navigation by protecting Global Navigation Satellite Systems from jamming and spoofing attacks. GNSS is essential for critical operations but increasingly faces threats from these malicious activities, leading to operational disruptions, safety concerns, and financial losses for businesses relying on GNSS-based services. GfR employs cutting-edge technologies and expertise to safeguard GNSS operations from such interference and increase GNSS resilience.
