GPS operation diagram

"The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based satellite navigation system that provides location and time information in all weather conditions, anywhere on or near the Earth where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites. The system provides critical capabilities to military, civil and commercial users around the world. It is maintained by the United States government and is freely accessible to anyone with a GPS receiver." [Global Positioning System. Wikipedia]

This global vehicular network diagram sample represents the independent regional telematics network.
"Telematics typically is any integrated use of telecommunications and informatics, also known as ICT (Information and Communications Technology). Hence the application of telematics is with any of the following:
(1) The technology of sending, receiving and storing information via telecommunication devices in conjunction with affecting control on remote objects.
(2) The integrated use of telecommunications and informatics, for application in vehicles and with control of vehicles on the move.
(3) Telematics includes but is not limited to Global Positioning System technology integrated with computers and mobile communications technology in automotive navigation systems. ...

This circle-spoke diagram sample illustrates the proximity marketing.
"Proximity marketing is the localized wireless distribution of advertising content associated with a particular place. Transmissions can be received by individuals in that location who wish to receive them and have the necessary equipment to do so.
Distribution may be via a traditional localized broadcast, or more commonly is specifically targeted to devices known to be in a particular area.
The location of a device may be determined by:
(1) A cellular phone being in a particular cell.
(2) A Bluetooth or WiFi device being within range of a transmitter.
(3) An Internet enabled device with GPS enabling it to request localized content from Internet servers.
(4) A NFC enabled phone can read a RFID chip on a product or media and launch localized content from internet servers.
Communications may be further targeted to specific groups within a given location, for example content in tourist hot spots may only be distributed to devices registered outside the local area.
Communications may be both time and place specific, e.g. content at a conference venue may depend on the event in progress.
Uses of proximity marketing include distribution of media at concerts, information (weblinks on local facilities), gaming and social applications, and advertising." [Proximity marketing. Wikipedia]
