IMPLEMENTATION OF LOCATION BASED SERVICE OF ATM CENTERS USING GPS

Project Abstract

Accessibility of location based services via our mobile phones is possible, provided that the mobile network can be retrieved by our mobile phones to exploit the use of geographical position of the mobile phone has been a continuous achievement starting from the military and later to every man jack. These location based services (LBS) use the information, based on the available location of the user to provide services dependent on their geographic setting, (Kirk & Mark, 2003) and customize needs. GPS tracking is embedded in location based services as a support tool in making use of mobile web (Leng, 2011). LBS, it’s been considered at these point as those applications that entail a high level of exactness according to (Giaglis, Kourouthanassis & Tsamakos, 2003).

Project Overview

CHAPTER ONE1.0       INTRODUCTIONAccessibility of location based services via our mobile phones is possible, provided that the mobile network can be retrieved by our mobile phones to exploit the use of geographical position of the mobile phone has been a continuous achievement starting from the military and later to every man jack. These location based services (LBS) use the information, based on the available location of the user to provide services dependent on their geographic setting, (Kirk & Mark, 2003) and customize needs. GPS tracking is embedded in location based services as a support tool in making use of mobile web (Leng, 2011). LBS, it’s been considered at these point as those applications that entail a high level of exactness according to (Giaglis, Kourouthanassis & Tsamakos, 2003). As a result these with no stress user can easily access location like banks, hotels, colleges etc. Project aspires to adjust and influence the usage of location based services focusing mainly on ATM centres available in Minna.An automated teller machine (ATM) is an electronic telecommunications mechanism that enable the users to carry out monetary transactions in a public places using credit card with no need of entering the bank. For that reason, users can effortlessly have their transaction completed by means of the ATM (Leng, 2011). On the other hand, people living in Minna are familiar with a particular ATM centre for performing their daily monetary transaction, at times when this ATM centres develops problem people are confused of which ATM centre to go to because they usually pass by several ATM centres but never take noticed of the location in which they are, so because of this they end up going to their Bank to be on the safer side. In addition for instance a foreigner, being his or her first time visiting Minna will find it difficult to locate a close by ATM centre when in need of cash urgently. For this reason this project will be solving a lots of problem in terms of locating an ATM centre closer to user current position and providing the user ability to access the status of that particular ATM centre.1.3       Aim and Objectives The aim of this study is to develop an ATM finder (My ATM’s status) mobile web application.For easy location and broadcasting of the ATM’s status in Minna.The specific objectives of this study are:·         To develop a system that will capture ATM centres location using Global Positioning System (GPS).·         To develop a system that will locate a close by ATM location from the user’s present position in Minna.·         To develop a system that will display the status of a particular ATM.Ability to locate an ATM centre closer to user current position and also retrieving information about the status of ATM centre will draw the trust of people living in Minna, and also foreigners to approach any ATM centre on this system with no doubt .  . 1.5     Limitation of the Study
