Step-by-step explanation:

The GPS (Global Positioning System) is made up of three segments: the spatial, control and user.

The space is composed of 24 satellites distributed in six orbital planes. The control segment is responsible for monitoring satellite orbits. Finally, the user segment is the GPS receiver, which is responsible for capturing the signals provided by the satellites.

This navigation system makes it possible, through artificial satellites, to obtain information about the geographical location anywhere on the earth's surface and at any time of the day.
