Abstract
A vehicle tracking system, which can efficiently monitor and control
the vehicles, is emerging in many (Integrated Transport Information
Systems)/( Intelligent Vehicle/Highway Systems) ITS/IVHS-related
areas. GIS and GPS technology linked with means of wireless
communication are essential to the system determining the vehicle
location. It is required to have a technique to handle the huge
amount of spatial data entailed in a digital road map in order to trace
the accurate position and condition within a reasonable time.
Methodology: The simulation is done in three stages. The first stage is
for simulation of logging of the data, the second stage is for simulation
of transmission of this data and the third stage is for simulation of
displaying of this data.
Results: The result that is got from these three stages are: from the
first stage after logging the data of fuel, oil and temperature to the
microcontroller, it is saved into its RAM, the microcontroller adds
another data to complete the frame to be ready for transmission by
the second stage. From the second stage this frame and data from the
GPS receiver are transmitted to the control center. Finally, the
received frame and GPS data are analyzed in the third stage, the
analysis is done by extraction of data of Fuel, Oil and Temperature
from other unneeded data for displaying in the frame, also GPS data is
analyzed, since it is received as a sentence and this sentence needs to
extract the position and the speed from it. After that this data is
displayed in a digital map.
Conclusion and Recommendation: Simulation was made instead of the
actual design, since the electronics components are not available to
design the PCB card, and the GPS receiver and the digital map are
expensive.
This project may be designed really if these components are available.
