What is a "global positioning system"?
A global positioning system (GPS) is a network of satellites that helps determine the location of a device on Earth. It works by using signals from these satellites to calculate the exact position of a GPS receiver, such as a smartphone or vehicle navigation system. GPS is commonly used for navigation, guiding users to their destinations, and providing real-time location data. It can also be used for tracking, measuring distance, and helping with time synchronization.
Example
She used her GPS to find the quickest route to her destination during the road trip.
The GPS device recalculated the route after he missed a turn on the highway.
The GPS showed real-time traffic updates, helping her avoid delays.
