A Survey: IoT based Vehicle Tracking System

Abstract: Present scenario of the vehicle tracking system is useful in many applications like trace the vehicle; find the current location of the vehicle, security of personal vehicle, public transportation system, traffic management and others. Focusing on current traffic scenario in major cities and user requirements, we are trying to implement such system which is useful in real time applications. This paper focuses on some of the techniques to help traffic management. One of the techniques is connecting traffic management with Internet of Things (IoTs). IoT is the system of physical objects or things installed with hardware, software, sensors, and system connectivity, which empowers these objects to gather and trade information. IoT uses different types of protocols to work with different objects. CoAP, MQTT protocols ESP8266 and Zigbee models and customized RFID to help traffic management.
