A residual position correction for one or more non-geolocational satellites is formed by observing through signal reception, from a known location, orbital attributes. Using the residual position correction, the actual position of one or more non-geolocational satellites is determined. Upon denial of GNSS data, the angle of reception of a signal from one of the non-geolocational satellites and the actual position of the satellite, accounting for tropospheric refracting and antenna azimuth and elevations adjustments, is used to determine the geolocation of the antenna terminal.
