Resumen

The development of tools and facilities for vehicle navigation has many benefits for the navigation world. Promoting the education in Navigation Systems, developing user applications for Location Based Services (LSB) or testing receivers and other sensor devices are just a few of them. This paper is to present the AVANT application, a hardware/software utility for a wide range of users. On one hand, this software utility offers detailed information useful for a GPS/EGNOS expert, bringing the possibility of studying the implementation of LBS according to their own requirements. On the other hand, non-experienced users will find the application intuitive and easy-to-learn. No special knowledge in ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) is required to run the application in a simple way as a useful tool to ease the driving.
