In less dense areas, GPS satellites have fewer barrier, so signals are generally more accurate. Wi-fi and cell tower can speed the process of picking up a signal. In dense cities or difficult weather conditions, GPS satellites might not always be able to get through, so cell tower and wi-fi triangulation help inform location and speed signal detection.
