"GPS" is a space-based radionavigation system, what does it stand for?
Correct answer: Global Positioning System

This is a great invention, but I'm of an age where I learnt to map read. GPS is brilliant, but you should always be aware of where it's taking you as it's not foolproof. I have 2 atlases on my car at all times.

One time we were lost in the country, GPS couldn’t find the way. A real paper map finally did the job. Technology is great— when it works. It’s always good to know basic skills for times when the “lights go out”.

I actually remember days before GPS was so prevalent. I still like actual maps☺

I would be literly lost without GPS.

I myself use the system most everyday and love the idea. However, I did learn to read and use maps and do not rely totally on the GPS system as it's not foolproof.

Interesting. Now that I live in England, I call it SAT NAV, as they do here.

I don’t know but what if there was something you could press if you had no idea that would be so cool and like then you don’t have to stress and ask because the after you press it then it would just show you the answer that would be so amazing

Scott, by using the 911 grid! I worked for a finance company and that is what we used!

RedSeaDiver69, do they even teach kids how to read maps anymore?
Raphus
RedSeaDiver69, on your car !! do the atlases blow away when you drive off? I keep my atlases in my car
Gigi
RedSeaDiver69, good idea, you are right you never know
Lionessa
Technology should be a convenience, not a crutch. A calculator is quick & helpful, but I like having the skill to use pencil & paper if necessary.
Madi
RedSeaDiver69, nicely done ✅
Alpo
RedSeaDiver69, I also have an atlas in my vehicle because I will never forget when Google had me driving down a narrow one lane road in Arkansas where I had to cross a small Creek to get to my destination at night.
