Cleveland, OH, USA: North Coast Media. — 52 p.
But the magazine has never limited itself to coverage of the U.S. Global Positioning System. We have also chronicled the development of GLONASS and Galileo, WAAS, LAAS, NDGPS, EGNOS, private correction services, MSAS, QZSS, Beidou, GAGAN and GRAS.
In addition to this business of global navigation satellite systems, we examine many fellow travelers, the technologies that GPS has taken along for the ride in its efforts to achieve greater accuracy, availability, integrity and robustness. We’re talking inertial sensors, LORAN-C, lasers, lidar, electronic compasses, cellular signal positioning, video signal positioning, odometers, wheel speed sensors, ultra wideband, RFID, Bluetooth, DSRC and more.
These draw our interest because GPS — as a concept now, not just a physical manifestation — has spread relentlessly, inexorably across the landscape, the seas, into air space, into outer space. It has dived deep into integration with these technologies, driven by designers and engineers crafting new solutions for challenging problems in the marketplace.
GPS World, the magazine, has covered the global positioning industry since 1989. Our website, gpsworld.com, began providing that same coverage in 1998, with news as it happens.
GPS World’s Navigate! Weekly e-newsletter first appeared in 2007, providing news conveniently delivered to your inbox.
GPS World’s market-segmented microsites are the freshest out-of-the-box tools for professionals in every tech field that uses or seeks to use global positioning, navigation, and timing. Use the tabs at the top of this page to access these highly targeted, highly accurate source materials.
