GPS
O Navigating by stars most widely
used for centuries
O The GPS project was developed
in 1973 by
O GPS was created and realized by
US Department of Defence and
was originally run with 24 satellites
O First satellite was launched in 1974
by US Department of Defence
O Later on, fully operated in 1995
GIS
O .
O He was given the title of the father of
GIS due to his creation in 1960 of the
canada geographic system
O This was the first computerised
geographic information system in
the world
O In 1969 Jack Dangermond founded
ESRI(
O Now a days it is the largest GIS
software developer in the world
What is GPS ?
O A space-based satellite navigation
system provides location and time
information in all weather
O Satellite based navigation system O GIS can relate unrelated
O Help us to show our exact position
on the earth anytime, in any
weather
O Tracking device
O Constellation of 24 satellites
What is GIS ?
O GIS is a system design to capture ,
store, manipulate , analyze , manage
and present geographic data.
information by using location as the
key index variable
O GIS can refer to a number of
different technologies , processes
and methods
O It has many applications related to
engineering, planning ,
telecomunnication , etc

ADVANTAGES OF GPS ADVANTAGES OF GIS

O Extremely easy to navigate O It has the ability of improving the

O It works in all weather organizational integration
O GPS costs you very low O More employment oppurtunity
O The system is updated regularly O GIS help you answer question
O It also helps you to search the
and solve problems by looking
nearby restaurants, hotels, etc your data
DISADVANTAGES OF GPS DISADVANTAGES OF GIS

O Sometimes the GPS may fail due O Expensive software

to certain reason and in that case O The earth is round and geographic
you need to carry a back up map error is increased as you get into
and direction larger scale
O GPS chip is power hungry which
drains battery in 8 to 12 hours
