## Sections of IEC 61108

Standard IEC 61108 is divided into four parts:

* Part 1: Global positioning system (GPS) - Receiver equipment - Performance standards, methods of testing and required test results
* Part 2: Global navigation satellite system (GLONASS) - Receiver equipment - Performance standards, methods of testing and required test results
* Part 3: Galileo receiver equipment - Performance requirements, methods of testing and required test results
* Part 4: Part 4: Shipborne DGPS and DGLONASS maritime radio beacon receiver equipment - Performance requirements, methods of testing and required test results

## History

On 1 December 2000, the International Maritime Organization - IMO adopted three resolutions regarding the characteristics of shipped GNSS receivers.
