The proposed system is aimed at managing all the buses of a college through an Android Application. The Application will allow all the faculty and students of a college to monitor where exactly each college bus is at any point of time. It makes use of a GPS module that must be placed inside each bus which will help us find the location of each bus and the data is retrieved in an Android App which will make use of Google Maps to track the movement of each bus. This app will help students and teachers to reach the bus stop at the right time or look for another alternative if the bus has already left or even check if there is any other bus going through the same route. This application will prove to be a great help for college students. Every Student shall login to the application by using the college Registration number. After logging in we can easily identify where exactly each bus of the college is travelling at that point of time.
