Generalities

The CEAS Conference on Guidance, Navigation and Control or “EuroGNC” an applied conference with strong aeronautics and space orientation. Non-aerospace applications with similar challenges and modeling approaches are welcome (e.g. automotive, robotics, wind energy, underwater vehicles). Theoretical works that are applicable to the aeronautics and space problems within the scope of EuroGNC are also welcome. Please see the full scope of the conference on the topics page.

EuroGNC conferences have typically between 100 and 150 participants and provide excellent value for money for the participants with lunches, dinner, etc. being included in the reasonable registration price.
