GIS gives people the geographic advantage to become more productive, more aware, and more responsive citizens of planet Earth. GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) includes not only the familiar GPS system operated by the US but also similar systems launched by Russia (GLONASS) and in the future Europe (Galileo) and China (COMPASS), as well as regional systems such as Japan (QZSS). Though GPS has entered the vernacular to mean satellite positioning, when we are talking about any satellite navigation system, the accepted term is GNSS – Global Navigation Satellite System. A growing number of new GNSS systems are being launched today. Chairman, 2009 was a year of solid, reliable performance for the U.S. Once complete (mostly within the next five years), there will be more than 300 civilian-accessible signals transmitting from over 100 international satellites across multiple global systems. Global Positioning System (GPS) based on a proven and stable space-based positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) policy framework. Continues; the Russian global orbiting navigation satellite system. The main systems are GLONASS from Russia, Galileo from the European Union, and Compass/Beidou from China. Reliable GPS navigation solutions help airplanes, ships and trucks achieve more direct, fuel-efficient routes, saving time and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
