Infographic: Evolution of GPS

GPS is a part of most people’s everyday life, whether they know it or not.  But, because these signals are ever present, I doubt most people really ever stop to think about where GPS comes from, or how it got started.

Today, I stumbled across this kind of neat infographic created by GPS tracking company TruVu, and wanted to share it with you. The infographic gives a timeline for the evolution of use of GPS technology.
