Narrative:
We departed on the yosemite 1 departure. ATC gave us a heading and cleared us to frame intersection when able. We entered frame into the FMS and executed that entry. The aircraft appeared to turn toward the waypoint however ATC asked us if we were turning toward frame yet. At that point it appeared the GPS had lost position and we declared a lost signal to ATC and asked for vectors. We were not able to regain accuracy with the GPS and navigated on vectors and VOR tracking for the remainder of the trip.perhaps recognition of the issue before departure [would have mitigated this issue] had it become evident.
