The US Department of Defense developed the satellite-based Global Positioning System (GPS) between 1973 and 1994. Accurate signals are sent by orbiting satellites to any receiver on the Earth's surface that is in their line-of-sight. With information from 4 or more satellites, the location of the receiver can be precisely determined.
