GPS is an abbreviation of [Global Positioning System], which is a system that allows you
to check your position utilizing GPS satellites.
Calculating the current position by receiving radio waves including orbit information and
clock information from multiple GPS satellites is called positioning.
The unit can record location name information and latitude/longitude for the recorded
image and automatically correct the time.
