groundspeed
Groundspeed is the horizontal speed of an aircraft relative to the Earth's surface. It is the combination of the aircraft's true airspeed and the current wind speed and direction; a headwind subtracts from the groundspeed, while a tailwind adds to it. This measurement is crucial for accurate navigation during flight.
