2014-05-23 14:00:33| Extremetech
The UK Ministry of Defense is exploring the development of a quantum compass that could effectively replace GPS in submarines and other military applications. If it pans out, a quantum compass could end up in your smartphone one day too.
New Tide Gauge Measures Sea Level Change Using GPS Signals
2014-05-22 01:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: A new way of measuring sea level using satellite navigation system signals, for instance GPS, has been implemented by scientists at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden. Sea level and its variation can easily be monitored using existing coastal GPS stations, the scientists have shown. ?Measuring sea level is an increasingly important part of climate research, and a rising mean sea level is one of the most tangible consequences of climate change. Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology...
Inertial Navigation System incorporates GPS compassing.
2014-05-20 14:30:57| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Incorporating MEMS sensor technology, VN-300 GPS/INS combines 3-axis accelerometers, 3-axis gyros, 3-axis magnetometers, barometric pressure sensor, 2 GPS receivers, and microprocessor in aluminum enclosure. When in motion, unit couples position and velocity measurements from GPS receivers with measurements from inertial sensors to provide position, velocity, and attitude estimates. GPS receivers also provide True North heading measurements when sensor is stationary via GPS compassing techniques.

Stop the Cycle of Driver Turnover with GPS Tracking
2014-05-11 19:56:13| AutomotiveDigest.com - Automotive Industry News
Are you aware of how valuable driver retention is to your business? Unfortunately, high driver turnover is a common challenge to deal with across the fleet industry and can have damaging affects to your business that you may not even realize. Although keeping a pool of new candidates may seem like a viable solution, hiring and training new employees takes time away from management that could be spent more productively. Constantly having new drivers on the road can lead to more accidents, less efficiency, and lower customer satisfaction. To maintain driver retention, utilize a GPS fleet tracking platform, like GPS Insight, to help retain quality drivers and keep your fleet as productive as possible.
