 What is GPS And Uses of GPS ?

 Have you ever heard GPS name? What are the benefits of GPS? Do not know if you have come to the right place, I have given you all the information about GPS in this article of mine. Have you ever wondered what is GPS and how does it work? How does GPS tell the correct location of someone? In my article, this is what you will know about GPS. So the complete information about it has been given below. If you are interested in knowing about GPS in the same posture and simple language, then read this article.

                 

What is GPS?

 The full form of GPS is the "Global Positioning System". This is such a satellite system that you can find the location of anyone very easily. Like when GPS was not there if we had to go to someplace and we did not know about that place, then we would ask someone to find out about it. But since GPS has come, we do not need to ask anyone anything. With the help of GPS, we can easily find out about it. The biggest example of GPS is Google Map, which you must be using. The biggest advantage of GPS is that you can use GPS for 24 hours. No matter how the weather is, the GPS never stops, it keeps going all the time.


History Of GPS 

 In 1957, the Soviet Union launched the Sputnik satellite, so that it could get better geolocation technology. Subsequently, in 1960, the US Navy served Submarines with satellite navigation. Which later led to the invention of the TRANSIT system. After that, the GPS system was first introduced by the US Department of Defense in 1960. GPS was available for a long period of time with cable governmental intelligence. But after that GPS was made available for everyone to use after 1983.


Where is used of GPS?

 Talking about the use of GPS, I have told you some major GPS usage below.

Location:- You can find the location of anyone with the help of GPS and you can find the location of any place very easily.

Navigation:- With GPS navigation you can reach from one place to another. Meaning that if you have to go somewhere and you do not know where that place is, then you can reach that place with the help of GPS navigation.

Tracking:- With GPS tracking, you can monitor someone. GPS tracking is used more heavily, police to catch a thief.

Mapping:- GPS mapping is a very good way to create a map. Meaning that you can create a map of the world with GPS mapping very easily.

Timing:- GPS timing is never wrong, meaning GPS tells you the correct time accurate location, that is, GPS works in real-time. Like if you are looking at a location in GPS right now, then GPS will tell you the current location.


Some facts about GPS satellites

(a) The official USDOD name for GPS is NAVSTAR.

(b) The first GPS satellite was launched in 1978. 

(c) In 1994, a full constellation of 24 satellites was launched.

(d) Each satellite is built for about 10 years. Replacements are constantly being built and launched in orbit.

(e) A GPS satellite weighs about 2,000 pounds and is about 17 feet with beds of solar panels.

(f) GPS satellites are powered by solar energy, but in the case of the solar eclipse, they have a backup battery onboard.

(g) The power cable of the transmitter is 50 watts or less.

How does GPS work?

 So let us now know how GPS (Global Positioning System) works? About this, let me tell you that this is a very powerful technology that works with the help of 24 satellites. It is a satellite, it is a satellite just like the earth, which is presently very far away. All these satellites revolve around the earth every one hour, all these satellites have been spread in such a way that they can easily cover the earth.

 This very amazing system of GPS is working on three standard segments. That segment is the Space Segment, Control Segment, and User Segment, all three segments are connected with the satellite, so that if we search for someone's location, then that signal comes directly to the earth, and then goes to the receiver. Location is easily detected. This is how GPS works, if we look at the whole system, then it is very difficult to do in this one article, we have just given direct information to you that how GPS works if you have complete details about it. If you want to know, there are many books and videos on YouTube for this, so that you can easily get complete information about GPS.


What is GPS used for?

 As everyone knows, GPS (Global Positioning System) is a navigation satellite that provides location, velocity, and time synchronization. So what is the use of this, let's take information about it.

 1: Emergency Response: Whenever there is an emergency dispute anywhere, GPS is used, for weather mapping, following, predicting, and also for monitoring emergency persons.

 2: Entertainment: The use of GPS is also used in the field of entertainment, as if you play any online game, then you ask for access to GPS so that it can find out who is in your area other than you. And he is playing the game and he also gives you suggestions accordingly.

 3: Health and Fitness: GPS is also used in health and fitness technology. As you must know, there are some such watches which tell you the address of the activity of your body, how they do it, do you know all this? If not, then know that GPS has been used there too, only then they can tell you about the activity of your body.

 We have told you some 3 functions of GPS, apart from this, GPS is used in much other work such as GPS is used in Construction, Transportation, Location, etc.
