How do you measure the distance of a lake?
The distance of a lake can be measured by using GPS devices, surveying tools, or mapping software. Alternatively, you could calculate the distance manually by using triangulation methods or by walking the perimeter of the lake and recording the distance covered.
Does your GPS measure walking distance accurately?
Yes, GPS devices are generally accurate in measuring walking distance. However, factors such as signal interference, tall buildings, or tree cover may impact the accuracy of the measurement.
Land speed record uses gps and laser technology to measure speed?
The land speed record is typically measured using a combination of GPS technology and laser sensors. GPS provides accurate location data, while laser technology can measure the distance the vehicle travels in a precise manner. By integrating data from both sources, an accurate speed measurement can be obtained.
What is it necessary to observe a minimum of four gps satellites to define position?
The GPS receiver measures the distance from it to a GPS satellite. Then it measures the distance to another GPS satellite. The location is somewhere on a line made up of the millions of plaes that these two distances cross each other. A third satellite distance is required to find out where your GPS receiver is, somewhere on that line.This process is called "Trilateration" (Three distances). (Not triangulation).If you want to know how high you are above sea level, you need a distance from a fourth satellite.
How scientists use GPS to measure the rate of tectonic plate movement?
Radio signals are continuously beamed from satellites to GPS ground stations, which record the exact distance between the satellites and the ground station. Over time, these distances change slightly. By recording the time it takes for the GPS ground stations to move a given distance, scientist can measure the speed at which each tectonic plate move

What is a gps golf range finder used for?
A gps golf range finder is used by golfers to see the distance to the hole, and also the distance between the golfer and the various hazards of the course.
Where can I go to read reviews for a GPS?
If you have recently got your son in football and there will be a lot of travel you can go to read reviews for a GPS online at cnet.com.
What is the average GPS of the Alabama football team?
Tom Tom or Garmin. You Choose!!
Will a Garmin Approach GPS help judge the distance from the fairway?
The Garmin Approach GPS will help you in being able to tell the distance between you and another object by an alert that sounds when you are too close.
Distance from earth to gps satellite?
Navigation satellites move around Earth at an altitude of about 1,243 miles to 22, 223 miles and at about the same speed of rotation. These satellites are in what is called Medium-Earth orbits (MEO).
What material is on the inside of a football?
air is in the football
What is a Bushnell hybrid laser GPS?
The Bushnell hybrid laser GPS is used by people who play golf. It helps you find the distance to the next hole. It is a rangefinder and a GPS at the same time.
How do you check odometer?
Borrrow a GPS, drive somewhere, compare the distance.
Do I have to buy a new cell phone if I want a gps locator on it, or can I download an app for my current phone?
Most phones have GPS device inside. You can't get true gps though without it.
What functions does a personal gps system offer?
Personal GPS systems are smaller, portable GPS systems. They still have most of the capabilities of normal GPS devices including location, distance and most of the time a touch screen. There are many personal GPS systems available. http://www.nextag.com/personal-gps/compare-html
Is a GPS an imput or output device?
GPS stands for global positioning system. it is a series of outputs from the GPS satellites and then input from their relative distance from the GPS enabled device. in other words, GPS systems are not in terms of input or output, just like you do not measure distance in voltage.
