How often do you find yourself in dilemma that the vehicle you want to catch is missed or where it is so that you can catch it again to have a perfect journey to your destination? So, this application program is designed to help you locate that particular vehicle by just sending a message to the driver and you get an instant message. Of course, those other tasks sometimes need to take priority. Texting while driving can be dangerous, and this task of texting is hard task for the driver to stop everywhere and text to each and every one where he is. Fortunately, the catch fast app for Android makes texting possible even when you're not available for texting. Our project 'FAST-CATCH' is a GPS based android application which helps the user to locate the vehicle by sending just an SMS. The application tracks the current location of the user through the Google maps API and it provides this location to the message sender, sender can use this location to find out where the vehicle is even though he is not using any internet connection. This projects overall gives the easier tool for finding out where is the position of the vehicle if he wants to catch it even if he is not carrying up a phone which is just capable of sending a message (SMS). It saves time and money. Texting has become a common and very popular method of communicating with friends. Shooting off a quick text is much quicker and easier than calling, and it's possible to text while distracted by other tasks.
This paper proposes an Android mobile phone application that gives information about buses, bus numbers as well as bus routes both online and offline. Reason for Android platform Android requires an open source development which is probably the most feasible and a present user friendly approach. This paper also deals with Location Based Services, which are used to track the current location of the bus as well as give an estimate remaining time for the tracked bus to reach its destination using the client –server technology.

IJERT-Bus Tracking System using GPS on Smartphones
International Journal of Engineering Research and Technology (IJERT), 2019
https://www.ijert.org/bus-tracking-system-using-gps-on-smartphones https://www.ijert.org/research/bus-tracking-system-using-gps-on-smartphones-IJERTCONV7IS11071.pdf The bus tracking system plays a vital role in current technology due to its various applications. Due to over population, there is a need for efficient public transportation system. There is increased burden on public transportation like bus just because of population. Therefore remote user needs a smart system which provides real time information of bus. So we proposed a new system which solves the drawback of current public transportation system. So our system handle all the data like current location of bus, management of buses. It provides current location of bus on google maps to the remote user. For development purpose technologies like GPS(Global Postioning System),GPRS(General Packet Radio Service)and google maps are used. LOCATION-BASED services are increasingly important for modern mobile devices such as the Smartphone. An important feature of a modern mobile device is that it can position itself. Not only for use on the device but also for remote applications that require tracking of the device. Furthermore, tracking has to robustly deliver position updates when faced with changing conditions such as delays due to positioning and communication, and changing positioning accuracy. The realized system tracks pedestrian targets equipped with GPS-enabled devices.
Predicting Bus Arrival Time with GPS on Android Application
International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR), 2016
In order to facilitate the introduction of transmit tracking and arrival time prediction in smaller tranasit agencies, we search an Andriod-based system which we call Tracker. To use tracker, a transit agency should obtain smartphones, install an application, and place a phone or GPS in each transit vehicle. Our goal is to require no other input. This level of automation is possible due to a set of algorithms that use GPS traces collected from instrumented transit vehicles to decide routes served, find stops, and deduce schedules. The primary information to most city transport buses is arrival time. It often dishearten the passengers for excessively waiting long time at bus stops and makes them averse to take the public transport, travellers. To enable the passenger to track the vehicle or bus an electronic device is established in a vehicle is known as Vehicle tracking System. This paper suggest a bus arrival time prediction using GPS,GSM technology. It would work as theft protection system and inexpensive source of vehicle tracking. It is an system using GPS (Global Positioning System), GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) and Microcontroller for tracking the travellers. The real time coordinates obtained from the GPS device will continually monitor a moving vehicle and report the position of the vehicle on request to passengers. The GPS/GSM unit is fix on the bus sends the data to the central monitoring system using the GSM module and show bus location name on the LCD. The status i.e Latitude and Longitude of a vehicle from distant place is sent by the GSM module to the Server and then the server calculates the ingress time of the bus and sends to the requested user through GSM module. A real-time vehicle tracking system uses a global positioning system (GPS) technology module to receive the location of the vehicle, to forward into microcontroller and to connect network by a general packet radio service (GPRS) technology for displaying a real time on the website or android map developed by Google Map which allows inspection of vehicles at all times. There are the GPS and GPRS modules, the GPS module will excavate the vehicles via the satellite, and will bring together all data and redirect it to the webapplication on student's device by a contoller. Here the system is handle by a bus in charge. It can notify students for several bus routes, timetables, bus location, etc. It also send notification to the students when data is updated. System also prevent to enter an unauthorized students in bus.
