Abstract
This paper proposes and implements a solution for enhancing public transportation management services based on GPS and GSM. The microcontroller based in bus module consisting mainly of GPS receiver, GSM modem and, IR Sensor. GPS modem starts transmitting the current location of the bus and IR sensor counting the number of passengers on the bus then send this data to the GSM modem through the microcontroller. The microcontroller used as an interface between GPS receiver and GSM modem, after that the data is sent to a smartphone through short message service, the location of the bus can be viewed on Google Maps. Which it is designed an Android application for smartphones, the users of transportation service can locate their destination on Google Maps, then the application determines the location of the bus closest to them and the number of passengers. The results have shown that this developed system is useful for facilitating people using public transportation services.
