New Name for GPS

Mark Finlayson - Friday, July 02, 2010

Never heard of GNSS, well you will need to get used to this new acronym as it is the new name for GPS. The American GPS is a part of the GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System), the Russians have a system called Glonass. The Europeans are developing Galileo and the Japanese, Chinese and Indians are all developing GNSS.

Our Leica Viva system will be compatible with all of these systems meaning more accuracy and more productivity. So our ‘GPS’ surveys are now actually ‘GNSS’, utilising GPS and Glonass systems in a combined GNSS.
