Drivool SoftGPS is a barebones GPS tracking application that transforms any smartphone into a GPS tracker. It allows a user's phone to share its location with an admin application, providing real-time location updates and geofencing capabilities. SoftGPS offers extensive APIs and can seamlessly wrap a web application.
The project will involve ideating various use cases such as on-demand services, delivery apps, geo-tagging apps, or other innovative applications. This will be followed by creating the web application, integrating it with the SoftGPS API, and wrapping the web app within the SoftGPS platform to leverage its geolocation features seamlessly.
Phase 1: Ideation and Planning
Objective: Define the use case and requirements for the geo-aware application.
Tasks:
Brainstorm Use Cases:
- Conduct brainstorming sessions to identify potential use cases.
- Select the most feasible and impactful use case (e.g., on-demand delivery service).
Define Requirements:
- Document the functional and non-functional requirements.
- Outline the features and functionalities needed for the web application (e.g., real-time tracking, geofencing, notifications).
Create Project Plan:
- Develop a detailed project plan with timelines, milestones, and deliverables.
Phase 2: Web Application Development
Objective: Develop the core web application with necessary features.
Tasks:
Design UI/UX:
- Create wireframes and mockups for the web application.
- Ensure the design is user-friendly and intuitive.
Set Up Development Environment:
- Choose the technology stack (e.g., HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Node.js, Express).
- Set up the development environment and repository (e.g., GitHub).
Develop Core Features:
- Implement user registration and login functionality.
- Develop the dashboard for real-time tracking.
- Integrate geofencing capabilities and notifications.
Testing:
- Conduct unit tests and integration tests.
- Perform user acceptance testing (UAT) to ensure the application meets requirements.
Phase 3: Integration with SoftGPS API
Objective: Integrate the web application with the SoftGPS API to enable geolocation features.
Tasks:
Obtain SoftGPS API Access:
- Register for SoftGPS API access and obtain API keys.
Integrate Real-Time Tracking:
- Use the SoftGPS API to fetch real-time location data.
- Display the location data on the web application’s dashboard.
Implement Dynamic Geofencing:
- Utilize the SoftGPS API to set up geofences.
- Configure notifications for geofence events (entering/exiting zones).
Testing:
- Test the integration to ensure accurate and real-time data is displayed.
- Validate geofencing and notification functionalities.
Phase 4: Wrapping Web Application within SoftGPS
Objective: Embed the web application within the SoftGPS mobile platform.
Tasks:
Prepare Web Application:
- Ensure the web application is fully functional and tested.
Wrap Web App with SoftGPS:
- Follow SoftGPS guidelines to wrap the web application.
- Make necessary adjustments to ensure compatibility.
Deployment:
- Deploy the wrapped web application on SoftGPS.
- Ensure smooth accessibility and functionality within the SoftGPS mobile app.
Final Testing:
- Conduct end-to-end testing within the SoftGPS platform.
- Ensure seamless user experience and accurate geolocation features.
