What are the Impacts of GPS Jamming and Spoofing on Civilians?

Reports of GPS interference attributed to countries and non-state actors around the world are on the rise. For example, GPS spoofing has been reported in Eastern Europe, Scandinavia, Russia, Gaza and southern Israel, Iran, Turkey, China, and Pakistan. GPS jamming has been reported in Ukraine, over the Baltics, in the South China Sea, Philippine Sea, eastern Indian Ocean, northwest of Australia, and near South Korea. Many of these reports come from commercial airline pilots and crews of maritime shipping vessels who rely on GPS positioning data to transport their passengers and cargo to and from their destinations around the globe.

Please join us for a livestreamed discussion on the impacts of GPS jamming and spoofing on public safety with Lisa Dyer, Executive Director of the GPS Innovation Alliance, David Turner, Senior Professional Staff Member for Space & Science, Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, and Andy Uribe, First Officer and Aviation Security Subject Matter Expert, Air Line Pilots Association, International. The event will be moderated by Clayton Swope, Deputy Director of the Aerospace Security Project and Senior Fellow with the International Security Program at CSIS.

This event is made possible by general support to CSIS.
