Project Overview
What is FleetTrack?
- FleetTrack is a GPS-based real-time bus tracking software.
- It is designed specifically for college students.
- Students can track the live location of their college bus using their mobile phones.
- The concept is similar to the "Where Is My Train" application.
- FleetTrack does not require any additional GPS hardware to be installed on the bus.
- The system uses the GPS-enabled smartphones of students to collect and share bus location data.
- Multiple students travelling on the same bus can contribute location data to improve tracking accuracy.
Target Users
- College Students
- Track the current location of their college bus.
- Check whether the bus is approaching their stop.
- Estimate the bus's arrival time.
- Avoid unnecessary waiting at bus stops.
Core Idea
- Use the GPS already available on students' smartphones.
- Eliminate the need for dedicated GPS tracking hardware.
- Provide real-time bus tracking through a community-driven approach.
- Make college transportation more predictable and convenient for students.
