GPS Technology
GPS Accuracy
GPS is the most widely used global positioning technology. Originally devel-
oped by the US Department of Defense, GPS is used for many different appli-
cations including, offshore ocean navigation, direction finding, exploration and
vehicle locating. Without Selective Availability, GPS is accurate to within a
radius of 6.3 meters of a location (95% of the GPS points fall within this radius).
There are inherent limitations to wireless communications and the Global
Positioning System (GPS).

approximately 95% of populated North America.
The GPS transceiver in the onboard device must have a direct line of sight with
three or more of the 24 satellites in the GPS constellation to provide accurate loca-
tion information. Underground parking garages, concrete enclosures and urban
