The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system that provides location and
time information to users anywhere on or near the Earth. It was originally developed by the United
States Department of Defense for military purposes but is now widely used by civilians for various
applications.
Key features of GPS include:

1. Satellite Constellation: The GPS system consists of a constellation of satellites orbiting the Earth,
transmitting signals that can be received by GPS receivers on the ground.
2. Triangulation: GPS receivers use signals from multiple satellites to determine their exact location
through a process called trilateration or triangulation.
3. Accuracy: GPS technology can provide highly accurate positioning information, typically within a few
meters for civilian users and even more precise for military and professional applications.
4. Applications: GPS is used in a wide range of applications, including navigation systems in cars,
smartphones, and aircraft; tracking and monitoring systems for logistics and transportation; surveying
and mapping; outdoor activities like hiking and geocaching; and more.
5. Augmentation Systems: To enhance the accuracy and reliability of GPS, augmentation systems like
WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System) and EGNOS (European Geostationary Navigation Overlay
Service) are used to provide correction signals and improve performance in specific regions.
Overall, GPS has revolutionized the way we navigate and track locations, making it an essential
technology in our modern world. Its widespread use continues to grow as new applications and
advancements in satellite technology further enhance its capabilities.
