8. GPS technology
is used
extensively in

systems combine
cellular data
networks for
Geographic Information
Systems (GIS) :-
9.
10. Speed:-
GPS’s calculate your
ground speed as
you walk, run, drive
or fly.
Elevation:-
In addition to
providing you with
your latitude and
longitude, GPS
provides you with
altitude information.
Navigation :-
11. IVHS will combine
GPS technology
with
communications,
controls, navigation
and information
systems to improve
highway safety,
ease trace
congestion, and
reduce harmful
Intelligent Vehicle Highway
Systems (IVHS) :-
12. A car navigation
system uses a
specialized computer
that use the signals
from GPS satellites to
track the driver's
progress on a digital
map. It may provides
services like the
shortest route, etc.
Car Navigation Systems :-
13. GPS technology is being applied in aircraft safety
systems, air traffic control system, and zero visibility
landing.
GPS technology can be used to plot aircraft altitude to a
pitch of one-tenth of one degree. In future, it is expected
to reduce the number of people required in the control
tower and cockpit.

20. GPS technology is being
used to develop emergency
messaging products. With
the aid of a wireless
communication link, the
emergency system
communicates the GPS
derived position information
and the specifies the
situation to the base station.
GPS based car alarms with
GPS to locate stolen cars
are being considered by the
automobile industry.
Emergency Systems :-
21. GPS Aides for the Blind :-
Real time GPS
along with digitized
maps and possibly
audio capability
can provide useful
navigational
capabilities to the
blind.
22. Tracking of Wild Animals :-
Animals are
equipped with GPS
receivers and with
wireless
transmitters. The
GPS determined
position is
transmitted to the
control station. This
information is used
to track animals and
23. Innovative Applications
Tracking your distance to the tee
I rarely golf without
a GPS because it
allows me to choose
clubs more
accurately. You can
first "map" the
fairway manually by
walking the course
and setting
waypoints. On most
GPS devices, you
just click a button
that looks like a flag
near each tee box
and hole. Then,
when you play the
course, the GPS
shows you your
current location and
24. Catch more fish than the next
guy
There's
nothing quite
like using a
GPS when
fishing -- it
even beats a
depth finder or
fish finder
because you
can find
fishing spots
that other
people rave
about.
25. Hunt for buried treasure with your co-
workers
Geocaching
involves
using a GPS
that you
load with
coordinates,
and then
finding a
buried
treasure in
parks and
other public
places.
26. Go for a hike, run, walk or bike ride and never
get lost
Biking with
a GPS
allows you
to not only
find a route,
but monitor
your heart
rate and
track your
distance.
27. Find your way around town
Car navigation
makes sense
for anyone
who travels for
business, or
for team-
building events
where
employees
must complete
tasks around
town.
