As for the users of satellite navigation systems the actual slogan is GPS and Galileo the advantages and disadvantages of different combined constellations of these systems must be taken into account. The distributions (in per cent) of the numbers of satellites visible by the observer at different latitudes situated in open and restricted (urban canyon) area for different masking elevation angles (Hmin) for two combined constellations GPS + Galileo systems (I 29 GPS satellites + 27 Galileo satellites, II 29 GPS + 30 Galileo) are presented in this paper. In addition to it the detailed distributions for the observer at latitudes 5060O for other constellations & elevation angles are demonstrated. For the first constellation the difference between the number of GPS satellites visible by the observer above horizon (Hmin = 0O) at latitudes 5060O and the number of Galileo satellites visible by the same observer at the same time can be equal each number between plus 7 and minus 7. This fact must be taken into account in the production and the determination of the number of channel of GPS-Galileo integrated receivers.
