What is GPS?

GPS stands for Global Positioning System – a satellite-based radio navigation system which was developed by the U.S. Department of Defense. The system is formed by 24 satellites orbiting the earth and continuously transmitting various signals. A standard GPS receiver can calculate its current latitude, longitude and elevation anywhere on earth, by analyzing these signals and measuring the distance between itself and these satellites.

In optimal conditions, a GPS receiver can calculate its location to an accuracy of a few meters. The accuracy mainly depends on the number of GPS satellites to which the GPS receiver is in a line of sight, but may be subject to other factors too.

Navigation Applications & Services

Using the Global Positioning System maintained by the U.S. Department of Defense is free of charge and no subscription is needed.

However, downloading a navigation application and/or using its navigation system may require a subscription and/or be subject to separate fees. To check the availability and pricing of navigation applications and services, please contact your network operator or service provider. Your network operator or service provider will also give you a link from which to download the navigation application and usage instructions.
