ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
It is our esteeme pleasure to present the project report on “BUS ENQUIRY”.
We express our deep gratitude to our project guide Mr. Arnab Chakraborty, who
gave us the inspiration to persue the project and guide us in this endeavour. He
has been a constant source of motivation and encouragement for us .We thank
him for all the initiative and zeal he filled us with throughput the project work.
Our profound sense of gratitude is due to our head of computer science and
engineering department Mr. Anupam Ghosh for constant encouragement and
valuable guidance.
Last but not least we are thankful to all friends without whose support at various
stages, this project would not have materialised. We are also thankful to all staff
at the institute who directly or indirectly helped us in completing our project.

ABSTRACT
The system is an Android application that gives the necessary information about
all the local buses travelling in the three different cities Kolkata, Mumbai and
Delhi. There are buses made available for passengers travelling distances, but not
many passengers have complete information about these buses.
By using this application, we can easily find the local bus route. Entering the
source and destination or a particular location or a bus number we easily get all
the buses in this route along with the details of all the stoppages. Current location
of a person can be known via GPS. The best part is this application works entirely
offline. Even without a internet connection we get all the information of the bus
along with maps.

OBJECTIVE
The idea originated from browsing existing technology built on behalf of
the “GET BUS” project; Android based application.
The main goal of the proposed work is to improve the Bus system by
adding the necessary additional features into the application.
This study accepts input in the form of selection of the source and
destination and selection of the bus travelling the distance to display
the entire details about the routes and also track current location of a
person.

SURVEY
Generally whenever we are travelling in city like Kolkata, we might prefer
to travel in CSTC buses because CSTC buses are fastest and cheaper way to
travel in Kolkata. They are also the most popular way of travelling in
Kolkata. We thought that if any new person arrives in Kolkata and wants
to travel/travelling in CSTC bus, how he/she can know about the route,
nearest CSTC stop, new person faces these types of problem when he/she
wants to travel.
So we thought to develop such map application in android based devices
where user can see his/her current location and perform other
functionality.
The main motivation of this application is to learn the mobile application
development. I was always curious to know how things work in mobile.
This led me to develop the GET BUS android application. I started this
application with the intension of making something simple and only
related to buses.

1. INTRODUCTION
Our project is “GET BUS” based on android application .
Android is an open source and Linux-based Operating System for mobile devices
such as smartphones and tablet computers. Android was developed by the Open
Handset Alliance, led by Google, and other companies. Android offers a unified
approach to application development for mobile devices which means developers
need only develop for Android, and their applications should be able to run on
different devices powered by Android.
There are buses made available for passengers travelling distances, but not many
passengers have complete information about these buses. Complete information
namely the number of buses that go to the required destination, bus numbers,
the routes through which the bus would pass and most importantly locate nearest
bus stop and a persons current location.
The proposed system deals with overcoming the problems stated above. We have
developed our application for those users who prefer to travel in Bus of different
cities (KOLKATA, MUMBAI and DELHI). The system is an Android application that
gives necessary information about all the buses travelling in three cities. This
information overcomes the problems faced in the previously built application
“Particular State bus Guide”. You can view the bus details by using bus no. and
also by source and destination. We can get all the bus route via entering the
location. In our application also map facilities are available, user can see all bus
stops on the map for a particular city.

2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Our project is “GET BUS” based on android application.
2.1 ABOUT ANDROID
Android applications are usually developed in the Java language using the Android
Software Development Kit. Once developed, Android applications can be
packaged easily and sold out either through a store such as Google Play or the
Amazon App store. Android powers hundreds of millions of mobile devices in
more than 190 countries around the world. It's the largest installed base of any
mobile platform and growing fast. Every day more than 1 million new Android
devices are activated worldwide. The platform chosen for this kind of system is
Android, reason being Android Operating System has come up on a very large
scale and is owned by almost every second person. Also, Android is a user friendly
platform, thereby enabling ease of access for all the users.
To develop apps for Android devices, you use a set of tools that are included in
the Android SDK. Once you've downloaded and installed the SDK, you can access
these tools right from your Eclipse IDE, through the ADT plugin, or from the
command line. Developing with Eclipse is the preferred method because it can
directly invoke the tools that you need while developing applications.
Android operating system is a stack of software components which is roughly
divided into five sections and four main layers, which are:
 Application
 Application framework
 Libraries and android framework
 Linux kernel

2.2 SYSTEM ARCHITECHTURE:
Linux kernel
At the bottom of the layers is Linux - Linux 2.6 with approximately 115 patches.
This provides basic system functionality like process management, memory
management, device management like camera, keypad, display etc. Also, the
kernel handles all the things that Linux is really good at such as networking and a

vast array of device drivers, which take the pain out of interfacing to peripheral
hardware.
Libraries
On top of Linux kernel there is a set of libraries including open-source Web
browser engine WebKit, well known library libc, SQLite database which is a useful
repository for storage and sharing of application data, libraries to play and record
audio and video, SSL libraries responsible for Internet security etc.
Android Runtime
This is the third section of the architecture and available on the second layer from
the bottom. This section provides a key component called Dalvik Virtual Machine
which is a kind of Java Virtual Machine specially designed and optimized for
Android.
Application Framework
The Application Framework layer provides many higher-level services to
applications in the form of Java classes. Application developers are allowed to
make use of these services in their applications.
Applications
You will find all the Android application at the top layer. You will write your
application to be installed on this layer only. Examples of such applications are
Contacts Books, Browser, Games etc.

4. REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS:
The project involved analysis the design of few applications so
as to make the application more user friendly. To do so, it was
really important to keep the navigation from one screen to the
other well-ordered and the same time reducing the amount of
typing the user needs to do. In ordered to make the application
more accessible, the android version had to be chosen so that it
is compatible with most of the android devices.
4.1. Functional requirement:
 Graphical user interface which the user.
 Mobiles phone with GPS capability
4.2. Software Requirements:
For developing the application the following are the software
requirements:
 OS :windows 7
 Language : Android SDK , java
 Tools: Eclipse IDE, Android plug-in for Eclipse.
 Technologies used: Java, XML
 Debugger: Android Dalvik Debug monitor service

For running the application the following are the software
requirements:
 OS: Android 2.3 or higher version
4.3 Hardware Requirements:
 Pentium 4, with 2 or 4 GB RAM
 Minimum 512MB space in disk
 Minimum space to execute: 10.0 MB in mobile device.
5. Mobile devices: advantages
 Always with the user
 Typically have Internet access
 Typically GPS enabled
 Typically have accelerometer & compass
 Most have cameras & microphones
 Many apps are free or low-cost
6. Mobile Devices: Disadvantages
 Limited screen size
 Limited battery life

CONCLUSION:

Our goal is to provide a useful platform of bus management at personal level and
to end user. To help any person find the Route to his destination easily. Making
the application work offline. it is often seen that were we get lost our mobile
networks works no more, this application will ease our work as it does not need
any data connection, just select your source and destination and we can get the
route’s(bus numbers).
We would share this application on social networking platform for marketing and
promotion, this concept will though take time to improve but we will with
professional growth improve it. Please give your feedback and ideas to improve.
Warm thanks to our project supervisor for all his guidance.
