Answer» Applications of GPS. - Navigation : In navigation, by using GPS can save countless hours in the field. Any feature, even if it is under water, can be located upto one hundred meters simply by scaling coordinates from a map, entering way points & going directly to site.
- Remote sensing and GIS : GPS positioning can be intergrated into remote – sensing methods such, as Photo grammetry and aerial scanning, magnetometry, and video technology using DGPs techniques.
- Surveying/Mapping : The high precision of GPS’ carries phase measurements, together with appropriate adjustment algorithum, provides an adequate tool for a variety of tasks for surveying and mapping.
- Geodesey : Geodetic mapping and other control surveys can be carried out effectively using high grade GPs equipment.
- Military : The GPs was Primarily develped for real time military positioning. Military applications include airbone, marine and land navigation.
