The Satellite Segment of GPS 6 unique orbital planes w/
ascending nodes approx. 60 degrees apart.
Their orbit inclinations at 55 degrees to the equator.
4 GPS satellites in each of these orbital planes.
20,200 km altitudes.

In Aug. & Sep. 2005, 6 additional monitor stations of the NGA (National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency) were added to the grid. Now, every satellite can be seen by, at least 2 monitor stations.
In the near future, 5 more NGA stations will be added so that every satellite can be seen by, at least 3 stations.

Other Factors for Consideration: Positional Dilution of Precision (PDOP)
*15 degrees above the local horizontal plane 45
Other Factors for Consideration: Blocked (Attenuated) Signals
46
Differential Correction
*Good correction found when the roving receiver is within 300 km (180 miles) of base station. 47
