Location technologies are technologies that are used to determine the location of an object, person, or device. There are various types of location technologies, including satellite-based systems such as GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System), as well as terrestrial-based systems such as Wi-Fi triangulation, cellular network triangulation, and RFID (radio-frequency identification). These technologies use different methods to determine the location of an object, such as by measuring the time it takes for a signal to travel from a satellite or a wireless access point to a receiver, or by using sensor data from a device’s accelerometer, gyroscope, or magnetometer. Location technologies are widely used in applications such as navigation, location-based services, asset tracking, and surveying.
