Hence the satellites' clocks gain approximately 38,640 nanoseconds a day or 38.6 μs per day due to relativistic effects in total. In order to compensate for this gain, a GPS clock's frequency needs to be slowed by the fraction: 5.307 × 10 −10 – 8.349 × 10 −11 = 4.472 × 10 −10
Current location-tracking technologies can be used to pinpoint users of mobile devices in several ways. First, service providers have access to network-based and handset-based technologies that can locate a phone for emergency purposes. Second, historical location can frequently be discerned from service provider records.
Clock synchronization: the accuracy of GPS time signals (±10 ns) [114] is second only to the atomic clocks they are based on, and is used in applications such as GPS disciplined oscillators. Disaster relief/emergency services: many emergency services depend upon GPS for location and timing capabilities.
An indoor location tracking map on a mobile phone. An indoor positioning system (IPS) is a network of devices used to locate people or objects where GPS and other satellite technologies lack precision or fail entirely, such as inside multistory buildings, airports, alleys, parking garages, and underground locations.

This isn’t the first time that better sleep has been linked with a lower risk of dementia: A study published in October even found that people with sleep apnea are more likely to develop dementia.
Calling a clock the most accurate ever may sound like hyperbole, but physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, Colorado have built a pair of devices that can ...
A GPS tracking unit, geotracking unit, satellite tracking unit, or simply tracker is a navigation device normally on a vehicle, asset, person or animal that uses satellite navigation to determine its movement and determine its WGS84 UTM geographic position (geotracking) to determine its location.

Scientists said this made the AI tool almost three times more accurate at predicting progression from signs of early-stage dementia to Alzheimer’s disease than the current standard of care.
