IOT VEHICLE TRACKING PROJECT Description: This is an IOT based GPS tracking device to track the vehicles in the real time.
Hardware Used: SIM808 GPRS module,Arduino Uno, SIM CARD(2g compatible), 12V adapter and jumper wires.
Software Used: Arduino IDE, ThingSpeak dashboard, google map api.
How to run this project:
- Connect the SIM808 module and Arduino UNO through jumper wires.
- Insert the sim card inside the gprs module and supply the power to gprs module through 12v adapter.
- Make a new account on the ThingSpeak dashboard and get GET API from there.
- Download the sketch file and make following changes in it: mobile number, APN, ThingSpeak API.
- Run the sketch on the Arduino IDE and Upload the sketch to arduino.
- You will get a call on the mobile number you have given the sketch, which will be autodisconnected.
- Next, You will receive a google maps api link as message on the same mobile number.
- Now look for lattitude and longitude values on the ThingSpeak dashboard.
- Get the google maps api key.
- Download the webpage file. Change the read api of ThingSpeak and google maps api.
- Run the webpage on the browser. You will able to see the exact location of module on the maps and this value gets updated every 10s.
