Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) is the standard generic term for satellite navigation systems that provide autonomous geo-spatial positioning with global coverage. GNSS allows small electronic receivers to determine their location (longitude, latitude, and altitude) to within a few metres using time signals transmitted along a line-of-sight by radio from satellites.
Golf GPS Units are about more than knowing distances. Depending on the model used, some will offer an overview map of each hole, which allows you to preview probable trouble spots that you otherwise might only have known about after playing the hole and having found out them the hard way. Knowing this data gives you the ability to opt for your strategy before you tee off. Some golf GPS units even include satellite imagery of every hole. So, along with supplying correct distances, good GPS devices can help you with strategy and course management
