摘要：GPS tracking device receives signals from the GPS satellites whereby each satellite knows the exact distance from the other satellites in its proximity. Depending on the time it takes for a signal to reach the device from each satellite, the GPS receiver can calculate its exact location on the ground. The GPS tracking device can then route that information back to an online tracking system for mapping. The main aim of this Android application is to track the college buses of St. Peter's College of Engineering and Technology in Chennai city which would give the exact location of buses with the help of Google map and help the users to plan their way to reach their college on time. This application may be greatly used by college students and staffs since Android mobiles has become common and spread everywhere. In addition, this will also enhance the security since the movement of the college buses is always available.
