Description

The objective of the Space Weather impact on Arctic Navigation (SWAN) project has been todevelop and demonstrate new techniques, which are expected to improve on the currentstate-of-the-art space weather forecasting techniques and products related to space weathereffects for Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) systems in the Arctic, with particularattention to the Greenland area.The project is part of the efforts of the European Space Agency (ESA) to provide monitoringand forecasts of space weather effects in Europe. The project has investigated innovativemethods for monitoring and predicting space weather impacts on PNT in the arctic.
