Hungary: an aircraft is counted in each layer it crosses, so the rows do not add up.

Background

Hungary's air navigation provider, HungaroControl, has set up a GNSS monitoring network to detect signal interference (HungaroControl). In 2024 Hungary presented the European Union's paper on GNSS interference to ICAO's Fourteenth Air Navigation Conference, which noted reports since late 2023 of spoofing that shifts aircraft positions by large distances (ICAO AN-Conf/14 WP/63, 2024). For the reporting on interference in Hungary, and who it is attributed to, see Eastern Europe.

Növekszik a GPS-zavarás Európában – közölte az Európai Bizottság szóvivője (“GPS interference is rising in Europe, says the European Commission's spokesperson”, in Hungarian), from euronews (magyarul). Watch on YouTube.

Only hexagons whose centre lies inside the borders of Hungary are counted, so hexagons in neighbouring countries and out at sea are left out. The map is framed on 45.7° N to 48.7° N and 16° E to 23° E.

Hungary is counted under Eastern Europe.

Hungary: with few aircraft, one report can give a hexagon a high share; see the limitations.

Hungary: low reported accuracy points to interference but does not prove it, and the map cannot locate a transmitter or say who is responsible. How the map is made.
