Global Positioning System (GPS) Surveying:

The use of the Global Positioning System (GPS) is used to collect data for various types of surveys when conditions allow.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based satellite navigation system that provides location and time information in all weather conditions, anywhere on or near the Earth where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites. The system provides critical capabilities to military, civil and commercial users around the world.
