SHIP’S GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (G.P.S)

The Global Positioning System ( commonly referred to as GPS) is employed on Ships in Bridge Room. It basically receives the data from a Satellite GPS station and calculates the Ships Geographical position on the Map as an exact 2D fix on board- as Longitude and Latitude. On board, the GPS (Global Positioning System ) receiver stores the almanac data for continuous use. GPS (Global Positioning System) has become mandatory on all the Sea going ships, even the tugs & small luxury boats are equipped with GPS (Global Positioning System). The Latest Development in GPS (Global Positioning System) field is the Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) which gives the location more accurately than the GPS. We procure these GPS (Global Positioning System) & DGPS (Differential Global Positioning System) from the Ships coming for scrap in the Ship Recycling Yard. The GPS (Global Positioning System)) are then checked to be in working condition with all functions and then carefully stored for supply to our clients.
