Navigation and timing services
Navigation and timing services refer to systems that help determine locations and provide precise time information. These services are commonly associated with satellite systems, like GPS, which uses satellites to pinpoint where you are on Earth. This technology is essential for driving directions, mapping, aviation, and marine navigation. Timing services, often tied to these navigation systems, are crucial for synchronizing various activities, including telecommunications and financial transactions. Together, they ensure accurate positioning and timing, enabling modern technology and daily conveniences, from smartphone apps to international travel.
