What Is GPS ? 
In 1974 the USA Department of Defense set about developing a Global Positioning 
System (GPS), a constellation of 24 satellites that Orbits 12,000 miles above the Earth. 
Using triangulation of signals from four of the satellites, a receiving unit on earth can 
pinpoint its current location to within a few meters. A GPS device receive the data, 
then convert the longitude, latitude, and altitude (LLA) data into a location point. 
Position and navigation information is vital to a wide range of professional and 
recreational activities covering surveying, search and rescue, tracking, hiking, 
navigating, and so forth.
