Figure 12 - GPS Satellite Orbits
The GPS system is a satellite group that enables a GPS
receiver to determine its exact position to within 30 m
(100 ft.) anywhere on earth. With a minimum of 24 GPS
satellites orbiting the earth at an altitude of approximately
11,000 miles they provide users with accurate information
on position, velocity, and time anywhere in the world and
in all weather conditions. The RapidFix™ stores this data
into its distress transmission allowing search and rescue
forces to narrow the search into a very small area and
thus minimize the resources required and dramatically
increase the effectiveness of the overall operation.
