Everyday Uses for GPS

Monday, January 19th, 2009

Sat Nav is becoming more and more part of our lives every day. Nearly all of us are now familiar with in car satellite navigation and most have experienced it either as a passenger or a driver. There are constantly new uses for the GPS technology in other devices.

Whilst playing golf at the weekend a playing partner was using a Sky Caddie golf GPS device which gave exact yardages to the flag which certainly made life much easier. However, as good and accurate as the device was hitting it the correct yardage is another thing! At least the accuracy of the GPS gave you the best possible chance of hitting a perfect shot and its certainly something I would consider investing in. (as well as a few golf lessons!)

Once you get comfortable with GPS technology either in your car, golf course, at sea or climbing mountains you start to think how did you manage before much the same as with a mobile phone. It will be interesting to see in the coming years what other applications there will be for GPS as I am sure it’s uses are far from being exhausted and it is certainly here to stay.
