Paikannusjärjestelmien
Paikannusjärjestelmät, known in English as positioning systems or navigation systems, are technologies that enable the determination of an object's geographical location. The most well-known example is the Global Positioning System (GPS), which utilizes a constellation of satellites orbiting the Earth. Receivers on the ground can calculate their position by measuring the time it takes for signals from multiple satellites to arrive. Other similar global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) include Russia's GLONASS, Europe's Galileo, and China's BeiDou.
Beyond satellite-based systems, other localization methods exist. Inertial navigation systems (INS) use accelerometers and gyroscopes to
The applications of paikannusjärjestelmät are vast and diverse. They are fundamental to everyday navigation for vehicles
