GPS, or Global Positioning System, is a global navigation
system that utilizes satellites in order to map the globe and provide accurate
data. GPS was originally exclusive to the government but in the 80s it became available
to the public. GPS impacted the world in my opinion because everyone uses GPS
in one way or another. Without GPS the military would have been less effective
out in the field and less precise, resulting in more casualties and losses.
Also, GPS is often used for emergency situations in which someone needs to be
located quickly, and without GPS it would take a longer amount of time. Also,
the common civilian use for GPS such as simple navigation, games, etc.
definitely makes life easier and more enjoyable. I think that GPS is a
wonderful innovation and I am grateful for its existence. There are many times
that GPS has helped me in my life and I appreciate that.
