GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System)

Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) refers to a network of satellites that provide location and timing information anywhere on Earth. It allows devices like smartphones and GPS units to determine their exact position by triangulating signals from multiple satellites. Key systems include GPS (USA), GLONASS (Russia), Galileo (Europe), and BeiDou (China). GNSS is widely used for navigation, mapping, and various applications in fields such as transportation, agriculture, and surveying, enabling users to achieve accurate positioning and timekeeping services across the globe.
