GPS TRACKER AND MONITORING SYSTEM USING MOBILE PHONE

This project is related to the study done on existing GPS tracking and monitoring systems mainly in Malaysia. GPS tracking systems are a common sight in Malaysia and it also gaining the attention of the local community day by day. However, the majority of GPS tracking systems in Malaysia use specialized hardware GPS devices that are installed directly into vehicles such as cars or trucks. With the presence of such GPS hardware in the vehicle, those particular vehicle can be tracked and monitored directly by the relevant party for a specific purposes. However, the installation of the GPS hardware is not an easy task and requires a skilled workforce to prevent damage to the GPS hardware and the vehicles itself. In addition, the use of the GPS hardware also requires high operating and installation costs. This is because the costs involved in using the GPS hardware include installation costs, skilled labor costs, maintenance costs and many more. In addition, external sabotage can also occur when using the GPS device, which can result in damage to the vehicle and loss to the owner or company itself. Therefore, to address these concerns, this project was introduced as an alternative to existing GPS tracking and monitoring systems. In fact, the project was also implemented to create a system to allow users to know the location of the vehicle or other users using the GPS service. Therefore, to prove the ef ectiveness and applicability of this project, a series of chapters will be further discussed in this report
