GPS technology serves a broad array of functions across various sectors. In transportation, it is integral for air and maritime navigation as well as rail systems, enhancing safety and efficiency.
開啟
Global Positioning System (GPS) Global Consequences They are widely used by countries around the world to do many things GPS are useful for mapping, locating, and analyzing geographical details, human infrastructure, and forecast all around the world Personal Consequences Can help you keep track of your pets Can help you find your lost device Parents can keep track of children, or locate them if they're lost Can help you find your way around different places in world with mapping support Environmental Consequences Modernization of GPS will further enhance support of GPS technology to the study and management of the environment They help to anticipate upcoming earthquakes They also help with weather forecasts, by determining the water content of the atmosphere By tagging imagery with GPS coordinates it is possible to evaluate conservation efforts and assist in strategy planning GPS technology used to evaluate an area's wildlife, terrain,
and human infrastructure Social Consequences Easier to track you when you call for help (911) Can help keep track of criminals Helps people find locations Made the environment a more safer place to live Has changed the way we communicate and live Huge impact on society Local consequences Multi path results in errors in measurements, affecting the positioning accuracy, since the signal takes a longer path than the direct signal GPS multi path caused by reception of signals arrived not only directly from satellites, but reflected or diffracted from local objects. GPS multi path can be caused interference between two radio waves which have traveled different length paths between the transmitter and the receiver Economical Conequences Maritime transportation- Private sector use of nautical charts and related marine information Rail transportation- Positive train control Air transportation Surveying different topics Construction- Earth moving with machine guidance Precision Agriculture- Grain Legal and Ethical Consequences Parents can track their child's location, but it is not ethically correct to be tracking someone's location regularly Employers can track employees, but it is not ethically correct to do so Scientific Consequences Useful for marine analyzation Can be used to anticipate upcoming natural disasters Can be used to analyze atmospheric conditions Uses reflection and Diffraction Uses Radio and Electromagnetic waves
