Global Positioning System (GPS) uses timing signals from four satellites to determine your latitude,longitude, altitude and precise time.

Answer 2

Global Positioning System (GPS) uses timing signals from four satellites to determine your latitude,longitude, altitude and precise time. The receiver compares the time a signal was transmitted by a satellite with the time it was received. The time difference tells the GPS receiver how far away the satellite is.
