Satelitarny System GPS wykorzystywany jest do monitoringu i ochrony kierowców, pojazdów oraz przewożonych ładunków. Dzieki systemowi GPS możliwa jest także automatyczna kontrola zadanej trasy przejazdu, śledzenie ruchu pojazdów i kierowanie akcją pościgową. System zapewnia również zdalne sterowanie urządzeniami zainstalowanymi w pojeździe (np. sygnalizacją alarmową, centralnym zamkiem lub immobilizerem).


Systemy Informacji Geograficznej (GIS) - skomputeryzowany system używany do wprowadzania danych geograficznych, zarządzania nimi, analizy i wyświetlania w formie cyfrowej.
Szerokość geograficzna - kąt zawarty pomiędzy równikiem a danym punktem na powierzchni Ziemi mierzony w stopniach od 0 do 90 na N lub S.

Odbiorniki GPS stają się bez wątpienia coraz mniejsze, podobnie jak różne rodzaje sprzętu elektronicznego. Ten trend miniaturyzacji przyspieszany jest przez konsumenckie zapotrzebowanie coraz mniejszych, lżejszych, szybszych i tańszych urządzeń.
Potrzeba osadzania odbiorników GPS w innych urządzeniach wprowadziła ten trend w praktykę, a producenci stale redukują liczbę elementów potrzebnych do zbudowania odbiornika.
Obecnie podstawowy odbiornik GPS składa się jedynie z dwóch lub trzech obwodów, do czego przyczynił się w dużej mierze wzrost zastosowania technologii cyfrowej. Pozwolił on również na ograniczenie zużycia mocy i rozmiarów odbiorników.
