About GPS Technology
The Global Positioning System (GPS), developed by the U.S. Department
of Defense, is a constellation of 24 satellites that orbit the Earth twice daily.
Each satellite contains an atomic clock that is accurate to the nanosecond, and
constantly emitting radio waves toward Earth. GPS sensors (hardware devices
for receiving data) can receive these signals from the satellites, and using their
own internal clock can calculate the amount of time it has taken for the signal to
be received. GPS relies on the fact that radio waves travel at the speed of light
to calculate distances, and the exact location of the sensor is figured by combin-
ing the data received from four satellites. Using the data from these four satel-
lites, GPS is able to give you the latitude, longitude and elevation of your present
location, and also your road speed and direction of travel on a route. Given the
right conditions, a GPS sensor can identify your geographic position anywhere in
the world within a matter of a few meters.
