Advantages of global positioning system


a. GPS is extremely easy to navigate because it tells you to direction whenever you
need to search you destination
b. GPS works together with weather so you would be worry free about weather and
navigation
c. GPS costs very low compared to other navigation systems
d. GPS could be integrate with phone or texts
e. GPS signal is worldwide
f. GPS powered by satellite so it can be accessed anywhere
2. Disadvantages of GPS
a. Sometimes GPS fail due to some certain reasons
b. Battery problems could harm your GPS when you are on navigation
c. Sometimes GPS signals aren’t accurate or not yet updated so you could be lost
d. GPS chip really eat your battery so you need to replace the battery often
e. GPS used up large constructions or structures
3. A GPS receiver determines its own location by measuring the time it takes for a signal to
arrive at its location from at least four satellites. Because radio waves travel at a constant
speed, the receiver can use the time measurements to calculate its distance from each
satellite.
Using multiple satellites makes the GPS data more accurate. If a GPS receiver
calculates its distance from only one satellite, it could be that exact distance from the
satellite in any direction. (trilateration)
4. Factors that influenc the accuracy of GPS
a. The position of satellites (three satellites to position the object and one satellite to
minimize error)
b. The features of GPS receivers; the position 9capability of a GPS receiver is one
important factor of GPS accuracy determination
c. The signal effect from surrounding environment; the propagation and the position of
the environment affect the accuracy of GPS
5. Perperator analysis is oe of the way to keep the infrastructure during disaster safe. It could
also help creating an effective disaster recovery plan with searching potential threats and the
vulnerability in infrastructure or any other elements. The analysis will help us to ease while
the disaster happens but we already know what to do to recover the situation after the
disaster.
6. The goals of disaster recovery testing
a. The disaster recovery testing could determine the recovery point object and
recovery time object
b. Provides feedback to enterprise so they can amend their Disaster recovery plan if
any unexpected issue happens
