Geolocation software

Geolocation software is a type of computer program that can figure out where something is located on the Earth. It does this by using data from satellites that orbit the Earth. This data can help a computer figure out the exact coordinates of a place, like a house, a city, or a country. People can use geolocation software to tell them where something is, or to help them find a place. It is used in a lot of different apps and services, like maps and weather apps.
