Although sales figures hatcback owned PT Honda Prospect Motor was down compared to the year 2008, but the Jazz moved up one rank. Jazz last year sold 15 713 units or mengusai 48% market share in its class.

Another best-selling Honda products Honda CR-V SUV who donated 10 110 units of total sales, as many as 39 570 units of HPM. This figure does not include 1104 units of the Honda Freed is exported to Thailand, Brunei Darussalam, and Singapore in December yesterday.

"Improving economic conditions in the mid to late this year helped Honda's sales pace, with the largest contribution comes from the Honda Jazz, Honda CR-V and also the latest products that Honda Freed Honda," said Jonfis Fandy, Marketing & After Sales Service Director, PT. Honda Prospect Motor.

Daihatsu made a pretty good note. Gran Max up five ranks from 10th position in 2008 to fifth position this year with total sales of 15 381 units. Low Daihatsu Terios SUV this year even signed ranks Top 10, ranked six, with sales of 13 149 units Toyota Rush through his brother, seven cautions, which sold 12 965 units.

Daihatsu itself occupies second place in total sales under the Toyota. "Achieving sales volume of 75 169 units a proud achievement. Almost all of the total local market car maker fell 18%, but decreased 3% compared Daihatsu only last year," said Amelia Tjandra, Marketing Director of PT Astra Daihatsu Motor (ADM).

Outside the trio of Toyota, Daihatsu and Honda, other names that enter the top 10 positions is the Suzuki APV sold 12 555 units and keluargan Nissan Livina - Grand Livina, Livina XR and Livina X-Gear - which recorded sales of 10 028 units.

What about this year? Seeing the trend of low duet larisnya MPV - Avanza and Xenia are expected in the year 2010 car sales will be growing from last year. Facts prove that the cars sold are still in demand today.

Here's a list of such best-selling car:

• Toyota Avanza
• Daihatsu Xenia
• Toyota Kijang Innova
• Honda Jazz
• Daihatsu Gran Max
• Daihatsu Terios
• Toyota Rush
• Suzuki APV
• Honda CR-V

Global Positioning System (GPS)

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based global satellite navigation system that provides reliable location and time information in all weather and at any time and anywhere on or near the earth where there is unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites. It is maintained by the United States government and freely accessible by anyone with a GPS receiver. The system was created and realized by the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD).

The GPS consists of three parts: the space segment, the control segment, and the user segment. The U.S. Air Force develops, maintains, and operates the space and control segments. GPS satellites broadcast signals from space, which each GPS receiver uses to calculate its three-dimensional location (latitude, longitude, and altitude) plus the current time.

GPS has become a widely used aid to navigation worldwide, and a useful tool for map-making, land surveying, commerce, scientific uses, tracking and surveillance, and hobbies such as geocaching and waymarking. The precise time reference provided by GPS is used in many applications including the scientific study of earthquakes and as a time synchronization source for cellular network protocols.

The design of GPS is based partly on similar ground-based radio navigation systems, such as LORAN and the Decca Navigator developed in the early 1940s, and used during World War II. In 1956 Friedwardt Winterberg proposed a test of general relativity using accurate atomic clocks placed in orbit in artificial satellites. To achieve accuracy requirements, GPS uses principles of general relativity to correct the satellites' atomic clocks. Additional inspiration for the GPS came when the Soviet Union launched the first man-made satellite, Sputnik in 1957. A team of U.S. scientists led by Dr. Richard B. Kershner were monitoring Sputnik's radio transmissions. They discovered that, because of the Doppler effect, the frequency of the signal being transmitted by Sputnik was higher as the satellite approached, and lower as it continued away from them. They realized that since they knew their exact location on the globe, they could pinpoint where the satellite was along its orbit by measuring the Doppler distortion.
