About GPS and GNSS
The unit uses a vehicle Global Positioning System (GPS)-based navigation device
which uses digital map data to guide you from your selected location A to
location B, using location information obtained from a Global Navigation Satellite
System (GNSS) .
A GNSS consists of a set of satellites that transmit high-frequency radio signals
containing time, direction, and distance data that can be picked up by a receiver,
allowing users to pinpoint their precise locations anywhere around the globe .
Navigation Satellite Receivers (GPS devices) use this transmitted information to
calculate an exact location on the Earth . Every point on Earth can be identified
by latitude and longitude . The receiver uses the information sent by at least three
satellites and determines the coordinates of the receiving device .
