Find where your kids have been! Verify employee driving routes! Review family members driving habits! Watch large shipment routes! Know where anything or anyone has been! All this can be done merely by sitting at your own desk!

Finding your way across the land is an ancient art and science. The stars, the compass, and good memory for landmarks helped you get from here to there. Even advice from someone along the way came into play. But, landmarks change, stars shift position, and compasses are affected by magnets and weather. And if you've ever sought directions from a local, you know it can just add to the confusion. The situation has never been perfect. This has led to the search of new technologies all over the world .The outcome is THE GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM. Focusing the application and usefulness of the GPS over the age-old challenge of finding the routes, this paper describes about the Global Positioning System, starting with the introduction, basic idea and applications of the GPS in real world.

Introduction

Global Positioning System (GPS) is a world-wide navigational system that can tell you with pinpoint accuracy your exact current location.

Global Positioning System, commonly known as GPS system, was the 1st satellite navigation system. It was launched in 1978 and is technically known as NAVSTAR GPS (Navigation Satellite with Timing and Ranging Global Positioning System ).

The GPS system was initially developed as a navigation aid for the military, however later it was made available to civilians as well & is now used in everyday life. But to keep the military applications at priority the United States Department of Defence provides two levels of GPS positioning & timing service.
(i) The Precise Positioning Service (PPS)
(ii) The standard Positioning Service (SPS)
