TrackerBack - Galileo

This is an excellent project idea, and won the Galileo Masters 2005 competition for best UK entry. The idea is for making use of the accurate satellite-navigation information that will be received from the new Galileo satelites. Richard White, from Melbourn in Cambridgeshire, representing his company TrackerBack received this prize for a a secure, web-based system. This can make sure that waste reaches its' destination instead of being dumped on the way. It could even track vehicle height to notice any illegal dumping of loads on a journey.
