CASTRO CORREA, Jhon Alejandro et al. Vehicle Geolocation System Using the GSM/GPRS Network and Arduino Technology. Rev.EIA.Esc.Ing.Antioq [online]. 2019, vol.16, n.31, pp.145-157. ISSN 1794-1237.  https://doi.org/10.24050/reia.v16i31.1269.

We designed a system to locate and store data of the geographical position of vehicles in real time. The system consists of two elements: a prototype for sending coordinates using the GSM/GPRS network and a web server for the reception and storage of the information coming from a GPS. We used the Raspberry Pi 3 embedded system as an HTTP web server running Apache 2.4 software as well as PHP and MySQL. A local static IP was established through DHCP and consequently the communication with any computer connected to the Internet was possible. The transmitter hardware includes an Arduino UNO card, a GPRS module, and a GPS module. The data frame $GPRMC used for the GPS complies with NMEA standard. Our results show an average difference of 6,50 m between the geographical location of the device compared to the real location point obtained from HTML5 geolocation; likewise, the daily consumption of the geolocation system is 367,97 kB. Finally, the accuracy of the proposed prototype was comparable to other geolocation alternatives, as well as the feasibility of using a SIM card with the GPRS protocol to transmit the data.
