  2. Global Positioning System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Positioning_System

    The Global Positioning System (GPS), originally Navstar GPS, [2] is a satellite-based radio navigation system owned by the United States Space Force and operated by Mission Delta 31. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] It is one of the global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) that provide geolocation and time information to a GPS receiver anywhere on or near the ...

  3. GNSS augmentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNSS_augmentation

    Augmentation of a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is a method of improving the navigation system's attributes, such as precision, reliability, and availability, through the integration of external information into the calculation process. There are many such systems in place, and they are generally named or described based on how the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide_Area_Augmentation_System

    The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) is an air navigation aid developed by the Federal Aviation Administration to augment the Global Positioning System (GPS), with the goal of improving its accuracy, integrity, and availability. Essentially, WAAS is intended to enable aircraft to rely on GPS for all phases of flight, including approaches ...

  7. Differential GPS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_GPS

    Differential Global Positioning Systems (DGPSs) supplement and enhance the positional data available from global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs). A DGPS can increase accuracy of positional data by about a thousandfold, from approximately 15 metres (49 ft) to 1–3 centimetres ( 1 ⁄ 2 – 1 + 1 ⁄ 4 in).
