  1. Geodetic Latitude

    Linked via "global navigation satellite systems (GNSS)"

    Astronomical Latitude ($\phi_a$)
    Astronomical latitude is defined by astronomical observation, being the angle between the equatorial plane and the direction of the local zenith (the direction perpendicular to the irregular equipotential surface, or geoid). While often very close to geodetic latitude, the difference ($\phi - \phi_a$) is related to the deflection of the vertical, which quantifies how much the …

    Satellite Navigation Systems (GNSS)
    Global Navigation Satellite Systems/) (GNSS), such as the Global Positioning System/) (GPS) and GLONASS, utilize trilateration based on time-of-flight measurements from a constellation of orbiting transmitters. A receiver calculates its position by measuring the pseudorange—the apparent distance based on the time difference between signal transmission and reception.
