Definición

  • The movement of goods, services, and people across the United States and global transportation infrastructure have evolved tremendously over the past two decades, due in part to technological advancements and the commercial and civilian availability of the Global Positioning System (GPS). The GPS, a U.S.-owned utility, is a dual-use, satellite-based system that provides accurate positioning, navigation, and timing services to users around the world.
