A Global Positioning System (GPS) device can determine its position on Earth once it **knows its distance from at least four satellites and uses the process of triangulation**.

This allows the GPS to accurately determine its position in three-dimensional space (latitude, longitude, and altitude) and also corrects for any timing discrepancies.
