General Info

GPS Connector is open platform of the Position Data cloud based project. There are two main components: GPS Connector service and GPS Connector Client. GPS Connector service is server part of the solution. This component ensures initial connection (three-way-handshake) and real-time data retrieve from various types of GPS trackers. Life of the component and connected GPS trackers is  continuously monitored by its own heartbeat system (watchdog). Retrieved GPS data are stored in database (see the structure below). GPS Connector Client is winform based component, which displays current state of GPS trackers connected to the system including last available values of transmitted data.

Developers can use both components for easy and powerful integration of their own GPS trackers. Further, they can build their own fleet management applications / GPS tracking applications or use our Position Data System Application (please, contact us for the details).

Source code of the components is available for free in the section below.

Architecture

Attributes and database structure

There are two tables in the database, which are important for GPS Connector service:

– gps_device => information about GPS devices 
– gps_device_data  => GPS data from GPS devices

GPS Connector Client

GPS Connector Client is form based application which displays current state of GPS trackers connected to the system including last available values of transmitted data …

Position Data System Application

Position Data System is web based application (ASP.NET) which provides complete fleet management functions:

– Current position od GPS tracker on the map
– History of movement on the map
– Journey log
– Cost evaluation
– Automatic import of fuel provider’s invoices
– Evaluation of driving profile
– Points of interest on the map
