The Maltese are the least likely among citizens of the EU member states to use a personal navigation devise like a (Global Positioning System) GPS according to a Eurobarometer survey on space activities. 

The survey shows that only 22% of Maltese use at least one of the three navigation systems. 9% are using a personal navigation device, 9% have one installed in their smart phone and a further 4% have one installed in their dashboard.

The survey shows that three in ten Europeans (29%) are using a Personal Navigation Device. Almost one-fifth (18%) are using a Smartphone with navigation software. Over one in ten (13%) are using a built-in navigation system, integrated in the dashboard.

This means that 50% of Europeans use at least one of the three navigation systems, 48% are not using any of them, and 2% say they don't know.

The interviewees were asked whether they are using navigation systems in their car or for any other purpose, such as hiking or biking: a Personal Navigation Device; a Smartphone with navigation software; and a built-in navigation system integrated in the dashboard.

Member States with the largest proportions of interviewees using at least one of the navigation systems include Denmark (72%), Luxembourg (71%), the Netherlands (70%), Germany (63%) and Belgium (61%); smallest proportions are found in Malta (21%), Bulgaria (26%), Romania (27%), Cyprus and Greece (both 28%).

...it is true what the Eurobarometer says, but the Maltese do not use the GPS because they navigate by the stars!
