Implementation of Bus Information Prediction System on Embedded Server

Abstract

In the present scenario road transport services usually provide bus timetables on the board but these bus timetables only provide very limited information e.g, operating hours, time intervals, etc. which are typically not timely updated according to instant traffic conditions. For this reason in this paper we propose a system which tracks location information of buses to help in estimate the arrival time at various bus stops for the community. The complete system is divided into three sections: 1) Querying user 2) Backend server 3) Bus section. The project work is based on GSM, GPS, ARM processor and Wireless communication. Passenger can send his query to the ITS (Intelligent Transportation System) toll free number and can get the bus location , seat availability and can book seat through the SMS.
