Galileo Test Range (Gtr) is the permanent laboratory for the validation of Galileo test signal and the development of navigation and positioning applications.
It is part of the Lazio's Aerospace Technology District, the fist in Italy, and is financed by the Regione Lazio(the regional Council for economic development, research, innovation and tourism) with operational support provided by Filas, the Region's investment agency supporting innovation. A consortium comprising Telespazio, Thales Alenia Space and Finmeccanica was responsible for the creation of the Galileo Test Range.
