Aircraft technology facilitated the development of both GPS (Global Positioning System) and remote sensing.
GPS was initially developed for military navigation and has since become a key technology in various civilian applications.
Remote sensing technology, which involves collecting data about the Earth's surface from aircraft and satellites, also evolved significantly due to advancements in aircraft technology.
GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Mercator projection maps, while related to geography and mapping, are not directly developed from aircraft technology specifically.
So, the best responses would be GPS and remote sensing. If you can only choose one option, GPS is often a more prominent example of technology facilitated by aircraft technology.
