Differential GPS (DGPS) is an enhancement to the standard Global Positioning System (GPS) that improves accuracy by using a network of fixed ground-based reference stations. These stations calculate the difference between their known positions and the positions provided by GPS satellites, then broadcast correction signals to nearby receivers, significantly enhancing positional accuracy for applications like autonomous vehicles, surveying, and marine navigation.
congrats on reading the definition of Differential GPS. now let's actually learn it.
