The 98 pages that link to Global Positioning System, each with the reason it gives.

• Special relativityBroader topic: Its clock calculations include special-relativistic corrections for satellite motion.

• GeodesyBroader topic: GPS turns geodetic satellite observations into widely used positions and timing.

• Space RaceBroader topic: Military space research eventually produced a widely used civilian navigation service.

• NavigationBroader topic: It supplies position estimates that can guide routes on land, at sea, and in the air.

• Global Navigation Satellite SystemBroader topic: GPS is the best-known GNSS, but it is only one of several independent systems.

• Gravitational time dilationBroader topic: GPS accounts for both gravitational and motion-related clock shifts to keep positions accurate.

• Maritime navigationBroader topic: GPS made precise, continuous position fixes widely available, while creating dependence on signal integrity.

• Satellite constellationBroader topic: Its medium-Earth-orbit constellation supplies continuous navigation coverage through overlapping satellite signals.

• TrilaterationBroader topic: GPS receivers estimate their positions from ranges to satellites, usually with additional clock-bias correction.

• Satellite navigationBroader topic: GPS is the best-known operational example of satellite navigation.

• Radio navigationBroader topic: GPS is the best-known satellite-based radio navigation system.

• Medium Earth orbitBroader topic: Its satellites orbit in MEO to provide broad coverage with fewer spacecraft than low-orbit systems.

• SatelliteBroader topic: Its constellation lets receivers calculate location from signals sent by orbiting satellites.

• Orbital spaceflightBroader topic: Its orbital constellation lets receivers calculate position from timed radio signals.

• History of navigationBroader topic: Satellite positioning represents the modern culmination of navigation by measured signals.
