Hai
I am developing a web based real-time vehicle tracking system. The GPS device installed in the vehicle frequently transmits the details which include the lat/lon of the vehicle to a database server. I need to fetch that lat/lon position from the database to display the position of the vehicle in the openstreet map. So the user can see the current position and details regarding his vehicle. I need to know how can I do this using openstreetmaps. If so how? Pls help me.
If u don’t understand what I mean pls let me know.
yes I had gone through all the programs I got from openstreetmaps . I need to display the vehicles of a particular user in the specified lat/lon on the map . The position should be change as per the new lat/lon fetched from the database.
Ofcourse you can use OSM for this, but you real question is how to use OpenLayers properly to place a marker on the map showing the vehicle position and update that position every now and then. Have a look at the yournavigation.org website’s javascript source code. It does most of the things you want already.
