Abstract
Safety of children is the most important to their parents. In present time due to increase in number of kidnapping and road accident cases, parents always worry about their children. It is important for the parents to know about where their children are exactly. And also, the bus arrival time is merely essential for all parents as the technology gets growing. In recent days, it was identified that long waiting time for bus stop often discourages the parents. The primary issue in the existing system is parents have to predict the arrival time of the bus due to lack of technology usage. When the bus is breakdown, the school admin should need to inform the message to all parents manually. To aid in the removal of these constraints, this paper presents GPS bus tracker, a personal location tracker application for android users. Whenever the parents want to know the location of their children, they can directly communicate with the GPS module that is located inside the bus. All the student, driver and bus route details are stored in sql database.
