What Is GPS

In 1974 the USA Department of Defense set about developing a Global

Positioning System (GPS), a constellation of 24 satellites that Orbits 12,000

miles above the Earth. Using triangulation of signals from four of the satellites,

a receiving unit on earth can pinpoint its current location to within a few

meters. A GPS device receives the data, converts the longitude, latitude, and

altitude (LLA) data into a location point. Position and navigation information is

vital to a wide range of professional and recreational activities covering

surveying, search and rescue, tracking, hiking, navigating, and so forth.
