Early May marked the 10th anniversary of when the United States Military made the Global Positioning System, or as we know it, GPS, available to the public for use. I don’t think most of us realise that it has only been 10 years that the system has been available which has made it now remarkably easy for you to use your cell phone to locate precisely where you are, or get directions and has made companies like Garmin and TomTom into household names and major corporations. It is another example of when things happen, how quickly they open up new industries and developments.
