2. Inertial navigation system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_navigation_system

   An inertial navigation system (INS; also inertial guidance system, inertial instrument) is a navigation device that uses motion sensors (accelerometers), rotation sensors and a computer to continuously calculate by dead reckoning the position, the orientation, and the velocity (direction and speed of movement) of a moving object without the ...

3. GPS/INS - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS/INS

   GPS/INS is commonly used on aircraft for navigation purposes. Using GPS/INS allows for smoother position and velocity estimates that can be provided at a sampling rate faster than the GPS receiver. This also allows for accurate estimation of the aircraft attitude (roll, pitch, and yaw) [citation needed] angles.

   Some of the free software mentioned here does not have detailed maps (or maps at all) or the ability to follow streets or type in street names (no geocoding). However, in many cases, it is also that which makes the program free (and sometimes open source [ 1 ] ), avoid the need of an Internet connection, [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] and make it very ...
