  Project Name

  -Virtual Fence Application

   

  Project Objectives

  - To develop a Java Application to fence in the handset within a fixed GPS grid.

  Project Description

  -Handset contains a fixed GPS Grid or GPS coordinates of three base stations.

  -When handset moves out of the range of the GPS grid a message/alarm is sent to the another handset or PC server.

   

  So basically does anybody has a solution for it or even some codes or links which that is available for me to review?? :) Really appreciate you guys help.

  1.Read up on GPS.

  Get the general idea of how it works....the idea of triangulation with 3 or more satellites...the precision level of the available system)...the transfer baud rate and protocol(s) used.

   

  2. Find out how do GPS data coming in to a GPS receiver look like...in raw data form....then U have to know how to break those raw data up to have meaningful data for display or calculation.
