IFBus: um aplicativo de rastreamento GPS GPRS do ônibus coletivo do IFPI – Campus Pedro II em sua rota na cidade

Abstract

Public transport is a crucial service in several urban centers, being responsible for ensuring the mobility of millions of people. However, the lack of accurate information about routes and times are common adversities faced by users. The objective of this work is to propose a solution for tracking and monitoring urban transport itineraries using information technologies. In this context, a data collection system on urban transport routes was developed. Tests conducted in real environments demonstrated the availability and reliability of monitoring with the predefined route, enabling new perspectives and solutions to the problem of the lack of information about bus routes and locations.
