GPS routes
Satellite-guided directions
GPS routes are directions generated by a Global Positioning System device or application, guiding travelers from one location to another.
The term typically refers to turn-by-turn navigation: The GPS route took us through back roads to avoid traffic.
Routes can be recalculated in real time when drivers miss turns or encounter delays.
I always check multiple GPS routes before a road trip to compare travel times.
