What is GAGAN? GAGAN is an acronym for G PS A ided G EO A ugmented N avigation. It is a Space Based Augmentation System ( SBAS ) jointly developed by ISRO and AAI to provide the best possible navigational services over Indian FIR (Flight Information Region) with the capability of expanding to neighbouring FIRs. GAGAN is a system of satellites and ground stations that provide GPS signal corrections, giving you better position accuracy. GPS alone does not meet the ICAOs navigational requirements for accuracy, integrity and availability. GAGAN corrects for GPS signal errors caused by Ionospheric disturbances, timing and satellite orbit errors and also it provides vital information regarding the health of each satellite.
