BuSCool - Schoolbus tracker

About BuSCool - Schoolbus tracker Android App

BuSCool app consists of two parts: parent and driver.

- When logging in as a parent, the user can see the location and status of his child on the daily school bus route on the map. Each child has his own BLE iTag device, using which app identifies if the student is on the bus or not.

- When logging in as a driver, the user (driver) can see his active route details ie, bus stops, and students at each stop to take to school. As soon as the driver is starting the daily route app shares its location with the parent's app. We use background location for bus location tracking while the route is active, as soon as the driver finishes his route app stops location sharing. We use background mode BLE to discover nearby iTag assigned to each student to mark them present or absent and notify parents about attendance.
