Analysis of Bus Tracking System Using GPS on Smartphones

Public transport networks(PTNs)are difficult to use when the user is unfamiliar with the area they are traveling to.This is true for both infrequent users(including visitors)and regular users who need to travel to areas with which they are not acquainted.In these situations,adequate on-trip navigation information can substantially ease the use of public transportation and be the driving factor in motivating travelers to prefer it over other modes of transportation.However,estimating the localization of a user is not trivial,although it is critical for providing relevant information.I assess relevant design issues for a modular cost-efficient user-friendly on-trip Navigation service that uses position sensors.By helping travelers move from single-occupancy vehicles to public transportation systems, communities can reduce traffic congestion as well as its environmental impact.Here,I describe our efforts to increase the satisfaction of current public transportation users and help motivate more people to ride.
