IOT BASED VEHICLE TRACKING AND MONITORING USING - GPS

Abstract

Generally the rise in vehicle tracking systems highlights the urgent need for improved security
measures against increasing concerns of vehicle theft. The proposed system introduces an antitheft feature, marking a significant advancement in vehicle security. This versatile tracking
system extends its protective benefits to personal vehicles, taxis, cabs, school buses, and
various modes of transportation, aiming to offer a reliable means for users to monitor and
safeguard their vehicles. In this project, we develop an efficient vehicle tracking system using
NodeMCU ESP8266, a GPS module. Our system provides real-time location tracking, speed
monitoring, and remote-control capabilities. By interfacing the GPS module with NodeMCU,
we extract accurate latitude and longitude coordinates. These coordinates are then transmitted
over Wi-Fi to a local web server, allowing users to monitor the vehicle’s location from
anywhere in the world.
