Satellite Navigation is just as accurate as GPS, having a 1-10 meter buffer zone. Both use a similar system, having satellites in orbit to triangulate a position. Satellite Navigation, better known as GLONASS, is used mostly by the Soviet Union while GPS, is use worldwide and the widest used system.

Where are GPS satellite signals processed?
GPS signals are processed in the GPS unit and displayed, and they are also processed via three Global Position Satellites. All four units work together and process GPS signals (some to the satellites from the GPS, and some from the satellites to the GPS) to create an accurate position.
What is RF tracking as compared to satellites?
I'm assuming you are talking about GPS when you say "satellite." RF tracking can be directional. It takes three RF receiver stations to triangulate the position of an RF transmitter and is usually less accurate than GPS. RF is also more limited by range, so the RF tracking stations are usually required to be mobile depending on the strength of the transmission signal.
How much does a GPS satellite weigh?
1 dam pound
How do gps satellites monitor faults?
satellite equipped with radar
What satellite helps us locate places on earth?
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based satellite navigation system that consists of a series of satellites used for locating places anywhere on or near the Earth. GPS became fully operational in 1995.There are also a number of satellites that take high-resolution imagery of earth including GeoEye-1, QuickBird, WorldView-1, WorldView-2, and others. High-resolution images combined with a precise location can help to locate any place on the planet.
What does 'sat nav' mean?
Global Positioning System (GPS) uses the signals from geosynchronous satellites to provide accurate position information for navigation. As such utilizing GPS for navigation amounts to utilizing satellite navigation ("sat nav"). Note that while GPS, which was developed by the US government is the most widely used satellite navigation system, Russia also has the Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS) deployed which can provide essentially the same satellite navigation capabilities - and can be used in along with GPS to get faster and more accurate position information. The EU, Japan, China, and India are also working to deploy a satellite navigation systems.
What satellite network is used for navigation of ships and aircraft?
The Global Positioning System, or GPS, is a network of Satellites used for accurate navigation of ships and aircraft.
What are the examples of navigation satellite?
Examples of navigation satellites include the Global Positioning System (GPS) operated by the United States, GLONASS operated by Russia, Galileo operated by the European Union, and BeiDou operated by China. These satellite constellations provide accurate positioning, navigation, and timing services worldwide.
What does nav- mean?
Satellite navigation is what it stands for. But it is called a 'GPS'
How does a satelliet navigation system differ than a GPS system?
They do not differ. A GPS system uses 3 different satellites that communicate together with your GPS to for a 3 dimentional que point to where you are in a 3 dimentional plane. (Thats why they need three) X,Y, and Z coordinates. There is a precomputed couple second 1-8 delay for all of the information to travel because they have already understood that it takes time for the information to get you. A satellite navigation system is another way of saying GPS.
How accurate is auto gps navigation?
According to my research the auto GPS navigation is very accurate. This is an article you may find interesting http://automobilegpsnavigation.co.cc/?tag=accuracy
Who invented Satellite navigation?
The concept of satellite navigation was developed by the United States Department of Defense through the Global Positioning System (GPS). The GPS was officially launched in 1978 and has since become the primary navigation system used worldwide.
What is the difference between a GPS and a Satellite Navigation System?
A GPS (Global Positioning System) is a specific satellite-based navigation system developed and operated by the United States government. Satellite navigation systems are more generally used to refer to any navigation system that relies on satellites to provide location information, which can include other systems like GLONASS (Russia) or Galileo (EU). Essentially, a GPS is a type of satellite navigation system.
What is the three letter abbreviation for the satellite device that TopoFusion software interacts with and uses?
The three-letter abbreviation for the satellite device that TopoFusion software interacts with and uses is GPS, which stands for Global Positioning System. GPS is a network of satellites that orbit the Earth and provide geolocation and time information to GPS receivers, enabling accurate positioning and navigation.
Compare to other GPS method is there any other method can replace GPS?
Both Russia and the EU have similar satellite based systems in operation, all you need is a receiver that can decode them. There are already a few navigation receiver models that are multisystem compatible, but they are much more expensive than simple GPS only navigation receivers. Nonsatellite based navigation systems (e.g. LORAN) are much harder to use and much less accurate than GPS and the other satellite based systems similar to it.
How do you use gps navigation?
It's super-easy to use GPS navigation. Just plug in your destination into the GPS device. A satellite automatically detects your current location and gives you step-by-step instructions on how to get where you need to be.
How does a gps navigation system tell you where to go?
A satellite that orbits earth tells it which way to go.
