My final year project

Finally i m going to tel you all about my final year project and here is the abstract

Now a days many governments and private organisations even individuals need to navigate and track their vehicles or real time objects while on the move.They need to track their vehicles from anywhere around the globe.Also taking into consideration when a vehicle is lost it is tedious job to find it.Its not easy to track vehicle , just with the vehicle number or the location where it is lost.Giving description about vehicle just cant help in this real time situation.But with the help of GPS , the vehicle can be found easily and can be tracked.
Usually two GSM modems are used along with the GPS receiver for the navigation and tracking purpose and for transferring the data from the vehicle to the control room.One GSM modem will be used in the control room from where the vehicles are tracked .The other one will be fitted with the vehicle along with the GPS receiver
The aim of our project is to navigate and track vehicles on the move, but with a low cost approach and with easier method.We are not going to use any GSM modems .But instead we are going to use the internet for transferring the signal from vehicle to the control room.The data fetched by the GPS receiver from the GPS satellites is processed using i microcontroller kit and it will be transferred to the PC in the control troom through internet via PC serial port.The data fetched in the PC will be processed using JAVA environment and the vehicle can be tracked in Google Earth
