5 GPS
What is it?
It stands for Global Positioning System.
GPS is a satellite based system that allows you to know your position
anywhere on Earth.
Why was it developed?
For the USA military to allow soldiers to know where they were regardless of
where there were.
So how do
satellites help?
If distance
between
yourself and at
least three
satellites
(preferably
four) can be
measured,
then your
location on
Earth can be
worked out. How accurately you can pinpoint your location depends on how
accurately you can measure the distances to the satellites. Commercial SatNav systems can measure to within a few metres.
Where is GPS used?
Uses:
* In cars - satellite navigation systems are becoming common
* Lorry Fleets: Used to track and locate vehicles
* Military - its original purpose, to help soldiers in the field.
* Shipping - to navigate the seas.
* Farming - to track crop growth and fertilizer application.
* Leisure - Mountaineers, hikers, explorers.
* Crime - offenders can now be 'tagged' with a GPS device to make sure they
stay where they should.
What is the future?
GPS has become so widespread in everyday life that some regions want to
control their own GPS for their citizens. For example the European Union
have been developing a similar system called Galileo.

11 DIGITAL DIVIDE
Risks
The digital divide refers to the gap between those who have access to technology
and those who do not.
The term 'digital divide' describes the fact that the world can be divided into people
who do and people who don't have access to - and the capability to use - modern
information technology, such as the telephone, television, or the Internet.
