Introduction
• Holistic Vehicle Tracking System
– Adam Elliott
• Database Management
– Christopher McNeil
• Web Development
– Matthew Lillywhite
• Infrastructure
– Taylor Kinsella
Proof of Concept
• Hardware capable of tracking geographical
position and sending over cellular network
• Server capable of accepting data send from
hardware and log into database
• Web server used by transit customers to
query database
• Plotted on interactive google map
• Login registration and favourite route
• Password encryption / best practices
Where Did the Idea Originate?
• All Calgary Public Transit users can relate
• Inconsistent scheduling times
• Weather deterred

Recommendations
• Device be duplicated and field tested using a
single route by Calgary Transit.
• Arduino Mega to a “Teensy” development
board
• Circuit boards and programming chips on a
larger scale
• Script to update database daily to show
which busses are servicing which routes.
• Moving to C++ or C#
