The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a constellation of satellites that orbit the earth twice a day,

transmitting precise time and positioning information to anywhere on the globe, 24 hours a day.

The system was designed and deployed by the U.S. Department of Defense to provide

continuous, worldwide positioning and navigation data to U.S. and allied military forces. GPS

broad commercial applications were recognized early in the system’s development, and the U.S.

government decided to allow free access to GPS signals. Today, GPS is used in a wide variety

of commercial and scientific applications.

The GPS page shows GPS data in graphic mode, displaying satellite availability and status.

This page displays the current status and location of all available satellites in the GPS constel-

lation, referenced to the initial position or last fix.
