Linear Algebra, Geodesy, and Gps, Gilbert Strang and Kai Borre, Wellesley-Cambridge Press.

Gilbert Strang is an MIT professor, with the best presentation of Linear Algebra I've seen. Much better than the professor I had at MIT!
His linear algebra course is available online at ocw.mit.edu, or more easily, via YouTube:
