Abstract - Unusual and unexpected conditions on the
roads affect the trouble-free operation of the bus system and
the movement in delay of vehicles. Also, daily problems such
as traffic congestion, unexpected delays, randomness in
passenger demand, irregular vehicle dispatching times take
place and as a result of which the schedule of the passengers
is affected and they inevitably have to wait for the arrival of
their respective bus. This passenger inconvenience can be
avoided by introducing a application for a smartphone
which provides real- time bus location information and
estimated time of arrival of the buses. This project focuses
on the implementation of a Real-Time vehicle Tracking
System (RTBTS), by installing GPS (Global Positioning
System)-module devices on college buses or using Drivers
Smartphone which will transmit the current location on the
GPS Receiver. Now the Global Positioning System Receiver
will be interacting with a cloud server and an interface
driver will auto save data in a dot text file of latitude and
longitude information which will continue to do so until the
GPS module is connected to a bus and internet. From here
the application server will retrieve data and store it in web
server or cloud platform from where the system will display
real-time information of the bus. The real-time bus tracking
system is a standalone application designed to display the
real-time locations of the buses to the users.
1. INTRODUCTION
Mumbai city faces severe problems of road congestion and
associated issues of commuters, which include delays in
the arrival of buses at bus-stops, lack of information about
different bus routes and bus-stops and time. College and
School students/staffs will miss their bus by a fraction of
second. This will lead to many problems like being late for
the school, classes and sometimes late for the
examinations also.
To overcome this we have made a Travel Management
Application. This system is used to track the BEST or or
other BRT and City buses. The proposed system uses a
Smartphone application working with Android and iOS.
Buses carry Global Positioning System (GPS) devices to
track their positions or uses the driver’s smartphone to
track location and Google Maps API is used to display the
vehicle on the map in the Smartphone application. It
shows where exactly the bus is there on the google map
and provides updated information to the user in real-time.
This also displays the estimated arrival time of the bus,
which helps the user to know when exactly the bus is
going to reach his/her stop. The proposed system is very
user friendly and ensures safety and surveillance at low
maintenance cost.
1.1 Motivation
In today’s hustle bustle life the technologies main goal is to
make the things more clear, accurate, less time consuming
and easy to understand. As we know that buses play very
important role in citizens life of each country. They help to
travel in any corner of the city quickly but the main
problem is that many school, college student and people
who travel by bus for their work face issue related to delay
in buses. So we have made a Android app that will help to
track the live position of the buses to reduce their daily
hustle.
1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT
The main limitations of traveling with bus is the
inconsistent arrival time which may due to unforeseen
circumstances. Even when we know the bus time-table
well, there are number of reasons that bus as may not
arrive at expected time. It is particularly annoying when a
person has urgent appointment, or reach to the
destination urgently but we are late due to the time-
consuming of bus trip. Students also cannot check on the
updated bus schedule if there is delay in arrival time of
bus. For example, student can choose to walk to the
building or he/she want to go instead of waiting for a
delayed bus. If there is a real-time platform for students to
know about the bus status.
1. They Don’t Display Real-time tracking.
2. Not integrated with google Maps API.
3. Only provide arrival time (with no Accuracy) with
the static Time-Table.
1.3 AIM and Objective
The real-time tracking of bus can be done and this
information is then given to user who wants to know the
real time location of the bus. Our application provides the
relevant information regarding
 Real time location
 Route details
 Average waiting time and expected time to reach
 Real time traffic to diverse route in case of heavy
congestion
 Finding Nearest bus stops
 Tourism Guide
 Emergency module feature

1.4 SCOPE
This project will be put up on the cloud Server, so
that it will be accessible by each and every
smartphone user.
The application will prove beneficial for each and
every bus traveller, or even tourists. Not just buses,
but this app will be useful for each and every person
travelling by any means of transport.
The GPS Tracker will give the exact location of the
bus which will make it easy for the passengers to
travel.
We will implement more feature like nearby places
to visit.
2. Flow Chart
3. Methodology:
In the bus tracking process, there would be many
miscalculation or unexpected results occur and this will act
on the accuracy of estimated bus arrival time for users. In
Users view point, the accuracy of estimated arrival time
will determine the success of the system. Therefore,
approach is suitable to test on acceptation of final system
from users. According to this approach, if user rejected a
prototype, a new prototype is developed based on new
requirements from user feedback and test on user again.
Once the approach is accepted by user, it would be the
model for final system. With high user involvement in
prototyping stage, the quality of final system will be
increased.

4.1 Explanation :
As shown in the above picture 4.1A and 4.1B, we created a
very user-friendly user-interface. Using this application,
users will search for bus-number for travelling using a
search bar. Users can search using bus numbers as well as
enter the name of the destination.
We will create another section for tourism where users
can search for nearby tourist spots and how to go there. As
well as the application will be able to show the real
tracking system for buses.
5. CONCLUSION
The conclusions of this study encourage that knowledge of
specific domain improves the results. This Project has
been implemented on Android Devices. Also, different
features have been added to the project which will prove
to be advantageous to the system. This project is
implemented using Java, React-Native Android SDK and
the SQL domain. Using the Global Positioning system, the
application will automatically display the maps and routes
to the different locations and also track the real -time bus
location using client-server and google maps API
technology and forward it to the client device. It uses basic
measurements of distance between source and destination
and provides necessary details of each and every route for
people to easily get a nearby bus-stop or any other
conveyance possible on the specified route. Real-time
location details are provided to the user along with bus no.
so that the users can identify the bus correctly. It uses
cloud server as its database. Due to this the records can be
easily calculated on the device itself and the server burden
gets reduced.
