Newton was the first to use integration to solve problems outside pure maths; he used it to solve problems connected with gravity, which varies continuously with distance. The integral of force with respect to distance = energy, eg the work done lifting an object into space. An inertial navigator integrates the output of three mutually perpendicular accelerometers to work out your velocity and then integrates your velocity to work out your distance travelled.

Someone already did.
It's amazing that you thought of coming here first...rather than...say...oh, I don't know...Google it?
I actually found a number of sources , but I feel like a sucker doing an internet search for you.
