Fleet Management And Driver Supervision Using GPS
Fleet Management And Driver Supervision Using GPS
ABSTRACT
With the help of satellite communication technology today is easy to identify the exact
location. Existing solutions support tracking of place (real-time or historical visibility), status of
vehicle which mostly are using centralized web server. The purpose of the paper is to describe
how solutions in the field of M2M (Machine to Machine) by combining fleet management
solution and cloud computing could deliver new technological innovation. The proposed solution
uses GPS based technology, GPRS and cloud computing infrastructure. The vehicle used for
testing purposes was equipped with the following devices: GPS device with a GPRS module
(TELTONIKA FM4200), sensors for identifying fuel level/status, driver identification and
collision prevention system. All the data that the device sends are transferred to a server running
in a cloud system through GPRS traffic. All the data is stored and saved in the cloud and the
customer could receive it from any device that can have access to a web page. The solution is
reliable, scalable and comprehensive that fits the needs and demands of the existing companies
on the market. It scales to all possible fleets of all sizes, and the paper also identifies how the
solution can improve operations, asset utilization. Although the number of connected devices,
machines that require connectivity is increasing, so far they have not been widely adopted in the
South East European region, and the research examines the reason for not fully acceptance of the
fleet management solution. The concept was developed taking into consideration some of the
most common use cases for companies in different fields that they operate.
SYSTEM ANALYSIS
EXISTING SYSTEM:
Location-based travel apps on the market, and 160 million app-compatible devices are
owned worldwide – iPhones, Androids, Blackberries and tablet devices such as the iPad and
Motorola Room. There are apps that can make our travelling a little easier, a bit more fun and
more memorable. They let you do anything you can do online or with a guidebook, but more
quickly and easily and while you're on the move – with maps and GPS to tell you where you are
and capture wonderful memories. This research is based on development of a user-friendly
Android-based application called Vehicle Tracker. Vehicle Tracking Solutions, a leading
provider of GPS fleet management services, has introduced a free downloadable “app” for the
Android phone that interacts with the fleet supervisor’s Vehicle Tracking Solutions account.
Called Silent International Journal of Latest Trends in Engineering and Technology (, this GPS
tracking Android app offers flexibility and mobility to fleet and operations management enabling
them to modify settings, get reports, or monitor vehicle status, all from their smart phone.
DISADVANTAGES:
In the business world, some companies make use of vehicle tracking devices so that they
can track vehicle movement.
Applications include being able to find out the location of a shipment so a customer can
be informed if necessary, as well as being certain that a driver is following a specified
route and is traveling at an appropriate speed.
While these applications can benefit a company, there are also disadvantages to using
vehicle tracking devices.
PROPOSED SYSTEM:
To use GPS for locating the position of vehicle. The will also find the speed of the
vehicle in real time. We can track vehicles through android application using GPS to find out
here a bus is using a web application which requires login of administrator for Vehicle Details
and User. We use the Vehicle details From Vehicle Registration Form i.e. (Vehicle Name,
Vehicle No. Driver Name, Driver Mobile No.).This is the Administrative Activity. From that
detail we can track the location of Vehicle, only registered vehicles location can track In case of
our software the device that we are going to use is an android phone and the vehicles will be
watched using android application. As urban living environment is becoming more and more
complex, the road condition is becoming worse because of heavy traffic, increase of traffic
accidents and high ratio of empty vehicle. It increases the cost of transportation and wastes time
of bus movement.
