Global Positioning System, or GPS, was a technology that used satellites to pinpoint an exact location of a certain object or person. Used by typing in coordinates or major location values, this could accurately find anything on Earth. It was often used to track suspects and to follow vehicles without risking the target's suspicions and the surveillance's cover.

Polega na tym, że kierowca zamiast mózgu i mapy używa urządzenia elektronicznego. W konsekwencji celami podróży stają się takie obiekty jak rowy, doły, rzeki, jeziora, niskie mosty, ulice jednokierunkowe, opuszczone statki kosmiczne, gdzie też auto najczęściej kończy podróż, bo dalej jechać się nie da.
  • The Global Positioning System (GPS) is the only fully functional Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). Utilizing a constellation of at least 24 Medium Earth Orbit satellites that transmit precise microwave signals, the system enables a GPS receiver to determine its location, speed, direction, and time. Other similar systems are the Russian GLONASS (incomplete as of 2007), the upcoming European Galileo positioning system, the proposed COMPASS navigation system of China, and IRNSS of India.
  • A global positioning system or GPS was a method to calculate a position on a planetary surface. Such systems were in use during the time of the Clone Wars and into the Galactic Civil War. In 20 BBY, Korkie Kryze and his friends rescued Satine Kryze in a speeder that had a built-in GPS.
  • The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based navigation system that provides location and time information in all weather conditions, anywhere on or near the Earth where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites. The system provides critical capabilities to military, civil, and commercial users around the world. The United States government created the system, maintains it, and makes it freely accessible to anyone with a GPS receiver.

  • Due to the extreme technological expertise needed, a GPS satellite could only be granted to an Allied base that had a tech center. Once built, Allied technicians would prepare a satellite for launch, and after preparations were made, the satellite would be launched into medium Earth orbit, revealing the topography of the area of operation, as well as the location of any enemy units.
