 The ones credited with inventing the GPS are Bradford Parkinson, Ivan Getting, and Roger Easton. It was released by the U.S department of defence. They invented it in 1973 to overcome limits of the last navigation system.

 Humans use the GPS to navigate and get where they want to go. A GPS gives you directions to where you want to go or your final destination. Many people use it in cars to help them get around in cities or even towns. It helps drastically if you don’t really know the community your in.

 A GPS or Global Positioning System is a satellite navigation system used to find location, speed and direction. Even though it was created by United States it is available everywhere around the world.

 Wherever you are on earth at least 4 satellites are visible at any time. Each one sends information about is position and the time at intervals. These signals which are travelling at the speed of light are picked up by your GPS.

 The GPS didn’t really develop but the technology has changed throughout the years. Such as the cars they are placed in and so on.
