A real time train track tracking system: design and implementation for Indian railway

We have seen that how much of our lives have been made easy via live tracking apps. If we need to go somewhere and need a cab for that we can easily go for booking a cab via Ola or Uber and get live tracking of the cab. Other implementations include tracking your online orders in real time, tracking trains and buses you need to catch etc. This leads to decrease in manual power to keep track of all such details. But this feature is not utilized as much as it can be. This feature of live tracking is used in keeping track of stations right now by railways. But it is not used to keep track of the investigations and checks performed at the stations. This can reduce the amount of paperwork and manual power involved in such a task. So this project tackles to solve this problem. The report looks into the factors involved in understanding what it is I was planning to implement and how I was going to implement it. Below listed are the various technologies that were used in giving this project a structure.
