Roger L Easton did not make it Ivan Getting did.
The navigation device was created by Roger L. Easton, Ivan A. Getting, and Bradford Parkinson, who were all involved in the development of the Global Positioning System (GPS).
The two men often credited with inventing the Global Positioning System (GPS) are Roger L. Easton and Ivan A. Getting. Roger L. Easton is known for his work on the initial development of satellite navigation systems, while Ivan A. Getting played a key role in the development of the technology behind GPS during his time at the MIT Radiation Laboratory.

The GPS project was developed in 1973 to overcome the limitations of previous navigation systems,[1] integrating ideas from several predecessors, including a number of classified engineering design studies from the 1960s. GPS was created and realized by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and was originally run with 24 satellites. It became fully operational in 1994. Bradford Parkinson, Roger L. Easton, and Ivan A. Getting are credited for inventing it.
originaly GPS was part of the US military satellite system and designed for battlefield positioning information in guidance systems. it was intended to create autonomous armaments that would direct themselves to their destinations automatically (as cruise missiles were intended to do) The system was released into the civilian world when it was realised how useful it could be - however it would be shutdown to civilians in the event of war. This problem has led the E.U. and particularly U.K. to develop "Magelan" a far more accurate system of positioning (to millimetres not metres of accuracy) using dozens of special satellites for civilian use only.
Roger L. Easton, Sr. (1921-2014) was a US scientist. He was the principal inventor and designer of the Global Positioning System (GPS).
Yes, Roger L. Easton had children. He was a prominent American engineer and scientist known for his contributions to GPS technology, and he is survived by his family, including his children. Specific details about his children are not widely publicized.
Roger L. Easton was born on 1921-04-30.
The first person to use a GPS system was Roger L. Easton, who was one of the key developers of the Global Positioning System (GPS). He helped pioneer the technology and its applications for navigation and tracking purposes.

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.
The Global Positioning System was invented by Roger L. Easton for the US military as a way to determine the precise location of ships, tanks, airplanes, and so forth in a time of war. Civilians have been able to use GPS for about 3 decades, or so.
