Augmented GPS

Augmented GPS (A-GPS) enhances standard GPS by combining satellite signals with additional data from cell towers and internet sources to improve location accuracy and speed. While traditional GPS relies solely on satellites, A-GPS uses nearby network information to quickly establish your position, especially in challenging environments like urban areas or indoors. This integration results in faster fix times, increased precision, and better performance when satellite signals are weak or obstructed, making navigation more reliable and efficient for everyday devices like smartphones.
