An inertial navigation system (INS) exhibits relatively low noise from second to second, but tends to drift over time. Typical aircraft inertial navigation errors grow at rates between 1 and 10 nmi/h (1.8 to 18 km/h) of operation. In contrast, Global Positioning System (GPS) errors are relatively noisy from second to second, but exhibit no long-term drift. Using both of these systems is superior to using either alone. Integrating the information from each sensor results in a navigation system...
