Vehicle Tracking System

4.1 Problem Statement

The primitive purpose of a vehicle tracking system is to trace a specific target vehicle or other objects. The tracking device is able to deliver information with reference to the current venue of the vehicle along with its speed, etc. Most of such tracking systems composed of an electronic device as most often installed in-vehicle and can be used for tracking motor cycles, buses, and trains. The vehicle tracking system proposed here uses the smart phone for tracking and has the following features:

 Gaining a vehicle’s geographic coordinates and a vehicle’s unique ID from a smart phone using the GPS module

 Vehicle’s location information transmission and a vehicle’s ID to a web server succeeding a specified time intermission

Nowadays, however, with technology growing rapidly, smart vehicle tracking system is being used in a variance to track and present location of vehicles in real-time. Our system proposes a vehicle tracking system using

GPS technology accessible in a Smartphone application to provide better service and cost effective result for users. On the foundation of statistical data, one can observe that the world is experiencing accelerated growth in Smartphone possession.

Thus as a result, Smartphone customer are now more widespread within the overall population than owners of basic mobile phones. As Smart phones incline more well-known to people and being used in the day to day lives, their control on community continues to grow. The main percept for this accelerated growth in

Smartphone usage is the availability of a large variety of applications that meet the demands of users. In our project we will be developing a Smartphone application which can trace the region of the vehicle by using the GPS technique available in smart phones. This offers convenience to the users as they become supportive

The proposed system will make excellent use Smartphone application. The system will be cost effective and inexpensive as compared to others. The vehicle tracking system makes use of readily available GPS module available in smart phone to achieve geographic coordinates at regular time intervals. The module is used to transmit and update the vehicle location. Smartphone application is used for continuously monitoring the vehicle location. The Google Maps API is to be used to display the vehicle on the map in the Smartphone application. Therefore, users will be able to monitor a moving vehicle on demand continuously using the Smartphone application and determine the predictable distance and time for the vehicle to arrive at a given destination, and can also get information about the traffic on a particular route and can determine if the vehicle takes a halt.

6.1.2 Overview of responsibilities of Developer

An application is to be designed and implemented for tracking the movement of any assembled vehicle from any location at any time. The proposed system will manufacture excellent use Smartphone application. The system will be cost
