Use of GPS Based Spatial Alarm System for an Alert of Locations

Kavyashri N P, Kavitha G, Mohammed Rafi

Abstract


GPS based spatial alarm is one of the alert system for many Location Based Services. If the user set an alarm for a location, it will make a sound and notification once it’s detected the user within the user defined range from the destination. The GPS must be enabled on a mobile device to use this application. SHA1 signature is used to generate a Google map API key for displaying the map in mobile devices. Spatial Alarm ensures high accuracy and scalability for alerting the user within his proximity distance. It shows that the Spatial Alarm system provides both the general system architecture and the essential building blocks for location-based reminders.
