GPS Rollover Event May Cause Devices, Systems To Go HaywireBy Juliette Goodrich, April 2, 2019 at 9:27 pm (KPIX 5) — On or around April 6th 2019 , will your handy-dandy global positioning system (GPS) device be working properly?

If you’re on a hike in the Coyote Hills, will your GPS device display that you are walking around at the Stanford Shopping Mall?
