🔍 Key Concepts

• Standard Positioning Service (SPS) vs Precise Positioning Service (PPS) and who is allowed to use each • How differential corrections improve GPS accuracy • The meaning of "commercial" use and "within a coverage area" in navigation systems

💭 Think About

• Which of these systems is normally available to civilian/commercial mariners, and which is reserved primarily for military/government use? • How does applying corrections from a known reference station affect the accuracy of a GPS signal compared to using the satellite signals alone? • What limitation is implied by "within a coverage area," and why might mariners still prefer that system when it is available?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which services (SPS or PPS) are intended for general public/commercial users versus authorized (often military) users • Compare the typical position accuracy (in meters) of stand‑alone GPS to GPS with differential corrections • Confirm whether "NAVSAT Doppler" is an older system and how its accuracy compares to modern GPS-based systems
