This paper presents the idea of the Local Area Navigation Systems (LANS) for automotive application in combination with standard GNSS navigation systems. The navigation system is based on four components: the widely available GPS, pseudolites located in areas where GPS signal is obstructed (tunnels, parking lots, city canyons), GPRS communication and supervisory informatics system. In this kind of system, reliable positioning is crucial. This article covers basic aspects of GPS single point positioning commonly used in navigation applications. Some information about differential positioning (DGPS/RTK) is also provided. A strong pressure is put on the application of pseudolite, its design and possible usability. This article presents authors own pseudolite design and the idea of pseudolite application to increase road safety in areas where standard GNSS signals are not available. The pseudolite presented in this paper is in the stage of development and testing. It is a device designed at the University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn in cooperation with Canadian Center for Geodetic Engineering, University of New Brunswick, Canada. Different approach to the navigation in harsh environment is to move the source of the navigation outside of the vehicle and place it inside of the obstructions. It is much more efficient way to use in vehicles standard GPS receivers augmented with signals from the pseudolites, when the satellite signals are unavailable.
