Previously, with only one constellation and GPS, you could see perhaps two or three satellites and quickly lose the positioning within the city. This is now rare to see in devices that do not support multi constellations.

Knowing the depth and shape of the seafloor (bathymetry) is fundamental for understanding ocean circulation, tides, tsunami forecasting, fishing resources, sediment transport, environmental change, underwater geo-hazards, infrastructure construction and maintenance, and much more.
Despite many years of effort, less than 20 percent of the world ocean's seafloor has been mapped.

Satellite-based Augmentation System or SBAS can augment standalone Global Navigation Satellite Systems such as GPS in a number of areas including accuracy, integrity, and availability.
It works by collecting raw positioning data from Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) in the region, computing error corrections and disseminating these corrections to users from a geostationary communications satellite via an uplink ground station.
