WHAT WE CAN DO WITH A GPS

Some possibilities offered by this device, almost all do the same, although some differences explained below. And these fundamental differences are based on the presence or absence of altimeterThis makes them to give us very accurate data related to those that have height, and the presence or absence of , Which makes those who have also stopped functioning, ie they are able to tell the direction or measuring distance or the cardinal point where we stand. Those who have no compass only work to pursue a course when we are walking. Not to say neither one nor the other do not give us the altitude at all times (but with less accuracy) and the cardinal points (but not stopped). Those are the biggest differences, of course, accuse the price and when walking more comfortable but not fundamental.

The GPS software have several screens. One, to tell us where we should go to pursue a course or to reach a specific place or to follow a path that we have made previously on the computer, as I will explain later. Another, with the compass, which, by means of an arrow also indicates the direction to follow, and the cardinal points and other data. Others give us interesting data, which can be quite varied. Depending on the GPS this data can be: speed we carry, we kilometers traveled, distance left to us to reach a particular point, the time it will take to arrive depending on the speed that we, as long as we are moving, the While we stand, the average moving speed or the total average speed height at a specified time, the cumulative rise in whole tour, accurate meters will have at all times the device (ie, the maximum error we can commit, even going by where we indicated, does not usually exceed 10 usually meters), height profiles and much more data and unhelpful. There is a display devoted solely to this type of data and another with the main menu to access where we want. Can there be any more appropriate. You can customize many details.

What is the Global Positioning System (GPS)

Modified on 16/11/2007

The (GPS) or (better known by the acronym GPS although its correct name is NAVSTAR-GPS1) is a Global Navigation Satellite System () which allows to determine everyone’s position an object, a person, vehicle or shed, with an accuracy up to centimeters using ; usually a few meters. Although his invention is attributed to French and Belgian governments, the system was developed and installed, and is currently operated by the Department of Defense of the United States. GPS works through a network of 27 (24 operational and 3 back) in orbit over the globe at 20,200 km with trajectories synchronized to cover the entire surface of the . When you want to determine the position, the device used to it automatically locates at least four in the network, which receives signals indicating the position and watch each of them. Based on these signals, the device synchronizes the GPS clock and calculates the delay of the signals, ie the distance to the satellite. By “triangulating” calculates the position in which it is located. The triangulation in the case of GPS, unlike the 2-D case is to ascertain the angle with respect to known points, is based on determining the distance of each satellite relative to the measuring point. Knowing the distance, is easily determined one’s position relative to the three . Knowing well the or position of each of them emitting the signal, we obtain the absolute position or actual of the measuring point. Also is achieved in the GPS clock, similar to that of atomic clocks carried on board each satellite. The former Soviet Union had a similar system called GLONASS, now managed by the Russian Federation. Currently the European Union tries to launch its own satellite positioning system, called ‘’.
ome mobile phones can be linked to a designed for that purpose. They tend to be independent modules that communicate with the phone wirelessly via Bluetooth and to provide the positioning data, which are interpreted by a browser program. This application of GPS is particularly widespread in mobile phones operating on the Symbian operating system and PDA with Windows Mobile but Nokia released the N95 with integrated GPS module

What is GPS? To Serve a GPS? … Practical Guide to GPS

Circulating in the area has about 20 that are capable of giving us the position on the taking into account the rate of emission of waves between them and a GPS. The mathematical foundations are complicated and need not concern us too, it really is to know what can be done with a GPS, in what sense are useful to us.

There GPSs for cars and GPSs for , sailing, etc.. Some Member States have included an accurate map of roads, such as cars, drive you to them once you have set a destination and there is no map, as the most elementary of , which lead us to a point which we are adding () or lead us on a tour true that we have introduced previously.

What concerns us here are or , etc.. which are the same. They are small (like the palms and less) laptops, designed to bring the mountain. They run on batteries that come to last between 4 and 10 hours, though they say it last longer. There are two outstanding brands in the market for this type of GPSs, and .
