The [[GALILEO General Introduction|GALILEO]]  System will be an independent, global, European-controlled, satellite-based navigation system and will provide a number of guaranteed services to users equipped with Galileo-compatible receivers. The definition of the  [[GALILEO General Introduction|GALILEO ]] Services is based on a comprehensive review of user needs and market analysis. The Galileo mission and services have been elaborated during the initial definition phase in consultation with user communities and the Member States.
 
==Introduction==
There will be some services provided autonomously by Galileo and other services resulting from the combined use of Galileo and other systems. This leads to the classification of the Galileo services into four categories:<ref name="GALHLD"> [http://ec.europa.eu/dgs/energy_transport/galileo/doc/galileo_hld_v3_23_09_02.pdf Galileo Mission High Level Definition], v3, September 2002.</ref>
 
# GALILEO satellite-only services: These services will be provided worldwide and independently from other systems by combining the signals broadcast by the Galileo satellites. There is a wide range of possible applications with different operational requirements that have been grouped around the following five reference services:
#* [[GALILEO Open Service|GALILEO Open Service (OS)]].
#* [[GALILEO Safety-of-Life Service|GALILEO Safety of Life (SoL)]].
#* [[GALILEO Commercial Service|GALILEO Commercial Service(CS)]].
#* [[GALILEO Public Regulated Service|GALILEO Public Regulated Service (PRS)]].
#* [[GALILEO Search and Rescue Service|GALILEO Support to Search and Rescue Service (SAR)]].
# GALILEO locally assisted services: The Galileo satellite-only services can be enhanced on a local basis through a combination of local elements. The result will be the provision of local services.
# EGNOS services: [[EGNOS General Introduction|EGNOS ]] will provide over Europe an augmentation to GPS and GLONASS services. This service will allow for early experience in development of Galileo-like applications. The EGNOS services will be combined with the Galileo satellite-only services. This will allow higher performance levels to be met by using different sources of integrity and navigation information.
# Galileo combined services: All the above-mentioned services will be combined with services provided by other navigation or communication systems. This possibility will improve the GNSS services availability at user level and open the door to a wide range of applications. The result will be the provision of combined services.

During the Initial Operational Capability (IOC) phase, the GALILEO open service, the search and rescue service and the PRS will be provided. At this stage, however, accuracy and availability will not yet have reached their optimum levels.<ref name="Mid-term review">[http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/newsroom/cf/_getdocument.cfm?doc_id=6321 Mid-term review of the European satellite radio navigation programmes]</ref>
