PRONUNCIATION OF GPS IN PORTUGUESE

GPS


WHAT DOES GPS MEAN IN PORTUGUESE?

Global Positioning System

The global positioning system is a satellite navigation system that provides a mobile receiving device with its position, as well as hourly information on all weather conditions, anytime, anywhere on Earth, provided the receiver is in the field of view of four GPS satellites. Two satellite navigation systems are in operation: the American GPS and the Russian GLONASS. There are also two other systems in place: the European Union Galileo and the Chinese Compass. The American system is owned by the United States Government and operated through the United States Department of Defense. Initially its use was exclusively military, and is currently available for free civilian use. However, there are few guarantees that wartime civilian use will be maintained, which would result in a serious risk to navigation. GPS was created in 1963 to overcome the limitations of previously outdated navigation systems.
