DESCRIPTION:Navigation can be viewed as merely determining position or dire
 ction\, but more commonly it relies on knowledge of position or direction 
 to control or monitor movement from one place to another. In this talk\, t
 he field of navigation is introduced\, including the evolution of techniqu
 es up through modern navigation dominated by electronic navigation includi
 ng radio\, radar\, and satellite. The working of GPS\, a navigation system
  based on a constellation of satellites in medium earth orbit that provide
 s positioning information with global coverage is explained. Since its lau
 nch in 1978\, it has been in ever wider use for finding and keeping track 
 of just about anything: people\, animals\, boats\, trucks\, planes\, and m
 ore. Its initial military uses have expanded far into civilian application
 s both for individuals and for large-scale commerce and transportation. Th
 e wide availability of first personal vehicle GPS navigation and later mob
 ile phone-based navigation have changed how the world does business and ho
 w people and goods are moved around. As more and more vehicles and people 
 rely upon it\, any threats to GPS navigation become more dangerous. This i
 s a result that more systems have become completely or primarily dependent
  on GPS for guidance and navigation. Simple jamming of the GPS can render 
 a system completely blind to its location\, while more sophisticated attac
 ks can spoof a GPS signal to control its navigation. Future trends and tec
 hnologies to address the security issue and to move forward in navigation 
 are discussed.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Colombia Section\n\nSpeaker(s): Kathlee
