What does GPS stand for in the context of emergency services?

Global Postal System
General Protection System
Geographical Positioning System
Global Positioning System

The correct answer is: Global Positioning System

GPS stands for Global Positioning System, which is a satellite-based navigation system that provides location, time, and weather information anywhere in the world. It is used by emergency services to accurately determine the locations of emergencies and to efficiently navigate to those locations. The other options are incorrect because - The Global Postal System (A) is a hypothetical system that does not currently exist. - The General Protection System (B) is not a commonly used term and does not relate to location tracking. - The Geographical Positioning System (C) is a similar sounding but incorrect term.
