GPS (Global Positioning System)

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system that allows users to determine their precise location anywhere on Earth. It consists of a network of satellites that send signals to GPS receivers, which calculate their position by analyzing the time it takes for the signals to arrive. This technology is widely used in smartphones, cars, and various outdoor activities, providing directions, tracking routes, and enabling various applications like mapping and location services. GPS has become an essential tool for navigation and location-based services in daily life and numerous industries.
