	AC 91-70 Oceanic Operations, an Authoritative Guide to Oceanic Operations (09-06-94)
		Navigation difficulties of this type are usually detected by a divergence between the navigation systems, a situation that often occurs gradually.
		Omega is a radio navigation system that uses a worldwide network of VLF signals from eight ground-based transmitters.
		Omega equipment operations should be closely analyzed to ensure that an unacceptable workload is not imposed upon the flightcrew by use of the Omega equipment in normal and abnormal operations.

	Satellite navigation system
		Satellite navigation receivers reduce errors by using combinations of signals from multiple satellites and multiple correlators, and then using techniques such as Kalman filtering to combine the noisy, partial, and constantly changing data into a single estimate for position, time, and velocity.
		The same applies to the use of smart bombs: the operator of a satellite navigation system can effectively degrade the performance of smart bombs being used by other states using its satellite navigation system to that of gravity bombs, or even offset them from their targets in such a way as to render them useless.
		The best known satellite navigation system is the United States' Global Positioning System (GPS), and as of 2002 the GPS is the only fully functional satellite navigation system.

	RNAV (Area Navigation)
		The system is based upon the measurement of the time difference in the arrival of signal pulses from a group or chain of stations.
		LORAN-C system inaccuracies are mainly attributable to distance from the ground station, receiver geometry relative to ground transmitter baselines, and propagation anomalies associated with the earth's surface.
		Omega is a network of eight VLF transmitting stations located throughout the world to provide worldwide signal coverage for marine and air navigation.

	OMEGA Navigation System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		OMEGA is the name for the first truly global radio navigation system for aircraft, operated by the United States in cooperation with six partner nations.
		OMEGA employed hyperbolic radionavigation techniques and the chain operated in the VLF portion of the spectrum between 10 to 14 kHz.
		Omega was permanently terminated on September 30, 1997 and all stations ceased operation.

	Satellite navigation system Summary
		This system, called Argos, is more complicated: an object on the ground sends a signal to a satellite, which then retransmits the signal to the ground.
		Satellite navigation systems allow small electronic devices to determine their location (Longitude, Latitude, and Altitude) in within a few metres using time signals transmitted along a line of sight by radio from satellites.
		The best known satellite navigation system is the United States' Global Positioning System (GPS), and as of 2006 the GPS is the only fully functional satellite navigation system.

	History of Satellite Navigation
		The DECCA system was a low-frequency hyperbolic navigation system covering much of western Europe, parts of Canada, the Persian Gulf and the Bay of Bengal.
		OMEGA is a very low frequency, phase comparison, worldwide radionavigation system which provides positioning within 2 to 4 nautical miles at a 95% confidence level with a 95% availability.
		The NAVSTAR system permits land, sea, and airborne users to determine their three-dimensional position, velocity, and time 24 hours a day, in all weather, anywhere in the world with a precision and accuracy far better than other radionavigation systems available today.

	Black Operations, From Assassination to Weather Control
		Curious members of the public who bothered to ask, were told that this was the new "Omega navigation System", a passive and thus harmless aid to maritime and aeronautical navigators.
		Though Omega did provide navigational services for a while, these were finally discreetly dropped in the nineties.
		In reality Omega was based on the work of Nikola Tesla, and designed to function in a way quite beyond the comprehension of contemporary physicists.

	SAIC: Operational Multiscale Environment model with Grid Adaptivity (OMEGA): High Resolution Weather Forecasting
		This allows an improvement in forecast accuracy by resolving both the physical processes in the region of interest at higher resolution and the surface properties that impact the weather (e.g., elevation, land use, land/water fraction, vegetation, albedo, soil type) at higher resolution.
		It also allows OMEGA to put the computational power where it is needed – for example forecasting specific areas such as airports or tracking a storm such as a hurricane.
		OMEGA forecasted pressure for Hurricane George (1998) valid on September 26 (left) and September 28 (right).

	Trimble - GPS Tutorial (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		The OMEGA radionavigation system, developed by the United States Navy for military aviation users, was approved for full implementation in 1968 and promised a true worldwide oceanic coverage capability and the ability to achieve a four mile accuracy when fixing a position.
		Initially, the system was to be used for navigating nuclear bombers across the North Pole to Russia.
		LORAN systems were up and running during World War II and were used extensively by the US Navy and Royal Navy.

	Omega
		Omega achieved full eight station implementation in 1983 and was used by several airlines flying long range routes over water as well as by military forces.
		Unless the Omega position was verified occasionally by comparison to a fix obtained with another navigation system or by periodic comparison to a carefully maintained plot, the chance of an error in the Omega lane count increased with time and distance.
		Omega receivers were used in the Number 3 position on some 747’s as backup for the two Inertial Navigation Systems.

	GPS GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM
		Many synchronization systems use GPS as a source of accurate time, hence one of the most common applications of this use is that of GPS as a reference clock for time code generators or NTP clocks.
		The GPS system uses a satellite constellation of 24 satellites in intermediate circular orbits.
		This offset is a practical demonstration of the theory of relativity in a real-world system; it is exactly that predicted by the theory, within the limits of accuracy of measurement.

	GPS Dropsonde
		The system also requires a GPS antenna mounted on the top of the aircraft and a UHF antenna, for receiving the dropsonde signal, mounted on the bottom of the aircraft.
		The AVAPS system PC pairs the PTH and wind data that are most closely matched in time, and then displays, in real-time, selected parameters to the color monitor, including pressure, temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, number of GPS satellites being tracked by the dropsonde, and geopotential altitude (computed hydrostatically from the PTH data).
		These systems were delivered to NOAA in August 1996 for testing and use, and have since been used in numerous research programs as well as operational forecasting of tropical and winter storms.

	Exchange of notes concerning the establishment, Maintenance and operation of four Omega Navigation System Monitoring ...
		These discussions have led to agreement that development of a cooperative program on the basis of the terms and conditions set forth in the Annex to this note would be in the mutual interest of our two countries.
		Expenses incident to the operation of the monitoring station equipment, including labor costs, installation of the antenna systems, electrical power and removal of equipment, will be borne by U.S.C.G. The U.S.C.G. will fund the maintenance of returned modules and will reimburse the C.C.G. for minor local repairs in excess of $250.00 (U.S.) per annum.
		For planning purposes, the OMEGA monitoring stations at Frobisher, St. Anthony, Inuvik and Resolute will be emplaced by June 1978.

	Black Operations, From Assassination to Weather Control
		It is beyond doubt this patent led to the construction of the Omega network of radio transmitters erected around the world between 1963 and 1982, officially for the purpose of global navigation, though navigation is its least important function.
		Although until recently Omega did offer very-low-frequency navigation services they were only a secondary function: a "security cover" for the network's real purpose of subtly manipulating the resonant frequency of the earth itself, and the resonant frequency of the earth-to-ionosphere gap.
		Put simply, Omega is the most powerful integrated global strike and C3i (Command, Control, Communications, intelligence) network ever constructed.
