By altitude

The Netherlands: mostly low altitude, which points to local, low-power jammers. How this is read.

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

Background

The Netherlands Aerospace Centre (NLR) has reported dozens of GNSS jammers passing its Amsterdam office every day (RNT Foundation, March 2018). A 2019 study it wrote for the Dutch radio regulator found spoofing equipment on sale for 100 to 1,000 euros, and named Schiphol and the port of Rotterdam among the infrastructure that could be exposed (Agentschap Telecom, July 2019). For the reporting on interference in the Netherlands, and who it is attributed to, see Western Europe.

Is de dreiging van gps-verstoring wel echt zo groot? (“Is the threat of GPS disruption really that big?”, in Dutch), from de Volkskrant. Watch on YouTube.

Only hexagons whose centre lies inside the borders of the Netherlands are counted, so hexagons in neighbouring countries and out at sea are left out. The map is framed on 50.7° N to 53.7° N and 3.3° E to 7.3° E.

The Netherlands is counted under Western Europe.

The Netherlands: 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.
