GPS and Other Satellite Systems
Using GPS and another satellite system together offers increased performance in challenging environments
and faster position acquisition than using GPS only. However, using multiple systems can reduce battery life
more quickly than using GPS only.
Your device can use these Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS).
GPS: A satellite constellation built by the United States.
GLONASS: A satellite constellation built by Russia.
GALILEO: A satellite constellation built by the European Space Agency.
