There used to be a terrestrial radionavigation system called Loran-C that could be used for positioning and timing, but it was decommissioned in 2010.
Loran-C was a high-power, low-frequency signal as opposed to the very-low-power, high-frequency signal of GPS. This made Loran-C less susceptible to jamming. It was a nice backup.
