Desenvolvimento de um sistema de geolocalização e comunicação para serviços de transportes

Abstract

With the advancement of information technology and the considerable increase in transportation segment, logistics softwares can provide a competitive advantage. Among these services, a fleet management system can be extremely important for the success of a company, as they can provide benefits such as maximizing productivity and centralizing strategic planning. Combined with quality communication with employees, agility and practicality in management, become part of the processes and many decisionmaking. However, the current market does not have a wide variety of monitoring solutions with means of communication using mobile devices. Therefore, the present work has the objective of developing a system that assists in fleet management, providing resources for realtime monitoring of vehicles and means of communication between employees, coordinators and managers. For this, a web application was developed, using the Angular framework, to view the fleet's vehicles on a map, and an Android mobile application, using the Kotlin language, to send the vehicle’s geolocation from mobile devices. In addition, realtime communication means were developed, such as asynchronous message chats and audio streaming, simulating a Push to talk radio. As a result, the features developed assist in fleet management, increasing productivity and strategic centralization, in addition to the flexibility to be used in different contexts, such as health care agents, Internet maintenance technicians and environmental agents.
