# Overview

Client-sided utilities for locating your data

The GPS module is a client-sided toolkit for determining where the client is at any given time. 

Usecases for this include:

* Getting a unique ID per-world, LAN server, multiplayer server or realm that the client is connected to, (for example, to store data on a per-world basis for minimaps and such);
* Helpers for grabbing data from the scoreboard or player list; this can be used for further refinement (think the 'Area: ' data on the player list in Hypixel's Skyblock)

To see this in practice, look at the [Example Notes Mod](https://github.com/JackFred2/ExampleNotesMod), which uses the GPS in order to save and load data on a per-connection basis.
