  2. Comparison of free off-line satellite navigation software

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_free_off...

    Very basic programs like this may not be suitable for road navigation in cars, but serve their purpose for navigation while walking or trekking, and for use at sea. To determine the GPS coordinates of a destination, one can use sites such as GPScoordinates.eu and GPS visualizer. Some software presented here is free, but maps may need to be paid ...

  3. Satellite navigation software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_navigation_software

    Searching: finds locations with addresses or GNSS coordinates (latitude and longitude). Traffic updates: shows real-time traffic information, enabling the software to suggest a better route during driving. Offline map: allows regions of map to be pre-downloaded, enabling usage with minimal connectivity. Bookmarking: saves locations for later use.

  4. Geopositioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geopositioning

    Geopositioning can be referred to both global positioning and outdoor positioning, using for example GPS, and to indoor positioning, for all the situations where satellite GPS is not a viable option and the localization process has to happen indoors. For indoor positioning, tracking and localization there are many technologies that can be used ...

    Click the Star to open "My Places". Select the most recent place which you have just saved. Click the email icon. The geographical coordinates are embedded in the email link which is then displayed. The coordinates are the two numbers displayed immediately after the letters "cp=". The latitude and longitude are separated by a tilde ( ~ ).

  6. GPS tracking unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_tracking_unit

    A GPS "track me" essentially contains a GPS module that receives the GPS signal and calculates the coordinates. For data loggers, it contains large memory to store the coordinates. Data pushers additionally contain a GSM/GPRS/CDMA/LTE modem to transmit this information to a central computer either via SMS or GPRS in form of IP packets.

  7. Global Positioning System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Positioning_System

    GPS receiver manufacturers design GPS receivers to use spectrum beyond the GPS-allocated band. In some cases, GPS receivers are designed to use up to 400 MHz of spectrum in either direction of the L1 frequency of 1575.42 MHz, because mobile satellite services in those regions are broadcasting from space to ground, and at power levels ...

  8. Satellite navigation solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_navigation_solution

    Satellite navigation solution for the receiver's position (geopositioning) involves an algorithm.In essence, a GNSS receiver measures the transmitting time of GNSS signals emitted from four or more GNSS satellites (giving the pseudorange) and these measurements are used to obtain its position (i.e., spatial coordinates) and reception time.

  9. Wi-Fi positioning system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_positioning_system

    Wi-Fi positioning system (WPS, WiPS or WFPS) is a geolocation system that uses the characteristics of nearby Wi‑Fi access points to discover where a device is located. [1]It is used where satellite navigation such as GPS is inadequate due to various causes including multipath and signal blockage indoors, or where acquiring a satellite fix would take too long. [2]
