Navigation with Indian Constellation (NavIC)
Navigation with Indian Constellation (NavIC) is India’s satellite-based system that provides accurate location and timing information across the country and surrounding regions. Comprising a constellation of seven satellites orbiting the Earth, NavIC enables devices to determine their position, speed, and direction with high precision. It is similar to GPS but specifically designed for Indian terrain and applications, supporting services like navigation for vehicles, mapping, disaster management, and military operations. NavIC enhances reliability, accuracy, and independence for India’s navigation needs, especially in areas where other global systems may have limited signals.
