GPS development history?

The application of GPS has been very wide, and more and more widely, almost involved in all areas of the national economy, especially in recent years its development to the consumer market of the strong momentum of the table when the GPS bit on behalf of the satellite navigation applications, because he can easily provide location, speed and time information, so it will soon become an important source of information in the modern information society, become the information age One of the national infrastructures, because he is powerful, easy to use, the price is suitable, so it can be well combined with other systems to form a large number of new applications, new products, and quickly into our daily work, study, life and entertainment, and its development is characterized by the following:

GPS application products industry is one of the eight current international wireless industry;

GPS is also the Currently the world's fastest growing one of the three major information industries;

GPS and GSM and CDMA combination has become a global communications and navigation hotspot;

The 1990s is the GPS show, monopoly should also be and the formation of a new type of international industry in the decade. 21st century the first 10 years of the GPS as a representative of the satellite navigation industry will be the United States to occupy a dominant position. Dominant position. But Europe, Japan, China and Russia will play an important role in this huge market. In the next 10 years should also satellite navigation industry development of the general trend is predicted as follows:

Satellite navigation means in most countries and regions may become the only means to replace the traditional navigation, positioning and timing. In the four major fields of sea, land, air and field, wherever dynamic or static positioning, attitude, timing and navigation information is needed, satellite navigation information will be used.

Space-based satellite information navigation system and its increased system will become the important infrastructure of the whole also should information society, the United States GPS monopoly of the whole also should situation is likely to be broken, the next 10 years may become the 10 years of GNSS.

The mutual compatibility of satellite navigation systems of various countries in the civil field will become a major international trend.

Land vehicle navigation will successfully drive the satellite navigation industry to develop rapidly and strongly.

The benefits of civil use are far greater than those of military use, and the application surface is much wider, which can truly realize the industrialization of manufacturing and mass consumption, and make the best use of things; the mutual integration of satellite navigation technology with communication, remote sensing and mass consumption products will create many new products and services, and open up a market with unlimited business opportunities. In the next five years, there will be up to eighty percent of the vehicles equipped with GPS devices.
