Satellite navigation is a technology that uses satellites to determine the precise geographic location of a receiver on or near the Earth's surface. This technology allows users to find their position using signals transmitted from satellites in orbit around the Earth. Satellite navigation systems operate by triangulating the signals from multiple satellites, which enables the calculation of the receiver's location in terms of latitude, longitude, and altitude.
