<p><note> The precision of the GPS is dependent upon the very high timing accuracy of atomic clocks.

With a GPS receiver that costs less than a few hundred dollars you can instantly learn your location on the planet -- your latitude, longitude, and even altitude -- to within a few hundred feet.<br/
This incredible new technology was made possible by a combination of scientific and engineering advances, particularly development of the world's most accurate timepieces: atomic clocks that are precise to within a billionth of a second.</q> <qau>http://www4.nationalacademies.org/beyond/beyonddiscovery.nsf/web/gps?OpenDocument</qau><br/
