Welcome Introducing Your NAVIGON 7100 About GPS Navigation GPS is based on a total of 24 satellites that circle the earth and are constantly transmitting their position. The GPS receiver uses this data and calculates its own geographical position on the basis of the information transmitted by the various satellites. For a sufficiently precise positioning it is necessary to obtain the data from at least three satellites.
