Real Time Vehicle Tracking Using Arduino Mega

ABSTRACT
Automobiles are necessary for the movement of goods from
one location to another. Consumers may face several
problems as a result of delays in the delivery of goods. This
delay may be due to drivers choosing incorrect or longer
routes when delivering. To avoid these challenges, the Global
Positioning System (GPS) is increasingly being used for
management of vehicle fleets, recovery of stolen vehicles,
mapping and surveillance. This paper outlines the design and
implementation of a real time GPS tracker system using
Arduino. When a user makes a call on the number that is
registered on the GPS-GSM shield attached to Arduino, the
user receives the location coordinates with data being stored
continuously on an SD card simultaneously. This proposal has
significant application for vehicle security, salesman tracking
and private drivers.
ADVANTAGES
1. We don’t have to call the driver to know their location. We
can track the route
2. Real-time tracking
3. Anti-theft feature
Disadvantages
1. GPS Location can be inaccurate sometimes
2. Environmental conditions there is no signal for gsm module
3. Human intervention
