GPSIntroduction : 'GPS on bike has a market in India ' The worldwide market for global positioning system (GPS) navigation and locationbased services has been growing exponentially and is expected to rise to 13.4 billion Rupees in 2014, with a high compound annual growth rate. Although still at a nascent stage in India, the GPS navigation market holds tremendous potential for growth, driven by its increasing acceptance among the younger generation as well as the exponential growth in popularity

INTRODUCTION The Global Positioning System, commonly referred to as the GPS, is one of the greatest innovations that truly revolutionized the way we function in the 21st century. It’s a space based satellite navigation system that uses 27 satellites and a wide range of networks of powerful computers used to send signals down to earth. These signals carry a time code and geographical data point that allows the user to pinpoint their exact position, speed and time anywhere on the planet. Centuries

This simplified 2D example will demonstrate how GPS uses trilateration to pinpoint an unknown location. Once a receiver has "locked in" onto a satellite, the unknown position may be anywhere within the radius of 1000 km of satellite one. The receiver picks up a signal from a second satellite and calculates the range as 1200 km. The position has been narrowed down to two positions; where the ranges intersect. If the receiver picks up another satellite, the unknown position can be found by calculating

Assignment 1, Internal Proposal PURPOSE The purpose of this proposal is to present the idea of adding a GPS trackers to the current golf cart fleet at the Campus Course at Texas A&M. SUMMARY With GPS installed on every cart in the Campus Course's fleet day to day operations would become incredibly more efficient, and we would have the capability to be better prepared for any and every situation. The GPS could also be used to make the customer's experience at the campus course one to remember by offering

In this high-tech environment of the 21st Century, most everyone who drives a car or carries a cellphone has heard of the Global Positioning System (GPS), but few could provide details on the origin, development and many uses of this system, outside of basic everyday navigation. This paper will explore the origin and development of the Global Positioning System, as well as analyze various uses of this system. Some of the practices include Military use, surveillance of those convicted of violent

all,2014) The vehicle tracking system is very useful in tracking and management for fleet. It is the technology used to determine the location of a vehicle using different methods like GPS and other navigation systems operating which uses satellites and ground based stations. Modern vehicle tracking systems use GPS technology to locate and keep monitoring our vehicle anywhere on earth, but sometimes using different types of automatic vehicle location technology are still another option. The vehicle

This paper describes the concept of the Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and how they improve the Air Cargo industry. In this paper we will discuss how GPS came to be and how it is used in every day air travel. The paper will also explain how the GPS systems improve the Air Cargo industry in tracking the shipment from one hub to another. The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a system of navigation based on the integration of 24 satellites, 21 working systems and 3 backups, that relay information

Geocaching: How to Get Started Looking for a fun, family-friendly way to exercise both mind and body? Try geocaching ("jee-oh-cash-ing"), the fast-growing sport that's akin to a modern-day treasure hunt. Instead of a worn map marked with an X, you use a GPS receiver, a set of coordinates and (optionally) clues. And instead of hunting for a buried chest, you're looking for a cache of goodies hidden in an eco-friendly site above ground. Geocaching Basics What's a Cache? How to go geocaching Caches are
