GLObal NAvigation Satellite System ( address book)
Abbreviation for: global orbiting navigation satellite system Fr: GLONASS
This is the European version of the Navstar system. Created out of Russia, the Glonass system serves all European countries. The Glonass system uses different configurations than the Navstar system, which makes these two networks of satellites incompatible with one another.
An all-weather, continuous satellite navigation system maintained by the Russian Space Forces. It is normally composed of 24 satellites in three orbital planes, with eight satellites in each plane. The spacing of satellites in orbit is arranged so that a minimum of four satellites will be in view to users worldwide, providing position dilution of precision (PDOP) of 6 or less.

(Global’naya Navigatsionnaya Sputnikovaya Sistema) Russian navigation by satellite system which is the equivalent of the American GPS.
The Global Orbiting Navigational Satellite System. The Russian equivalent to the United States' GPS system.
A global positioning system similar to GPS but using satellites of the former Soviet Union.
GLONASS ( tr.: Global'naya Navigatsionnaya Sputnikovaya Sistema; ) is a radio satellite navigation system, the former Soviet and now Russian counterpart to the United States' GPS system and the European Union's embryonic Galileo positioning system. It is operated for the Russian government by the Russian Space Forces.
