The location of each university bus can be determined from anywhere using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology. The Vice Chancellor of Shahjalal University of Science and Technology (SUST), Professor Farid Uddin Ahmed, will start using this method.
There are a total of 39 vehicles in the university’s vehicle fleet.
This information was announced by traffic administrator Professor Anwar Hossain on Monday (June 19).
He said the launch of that system will begin with the initial installation of tracking devices on university buses on Tuesday. Institute of Information and Communication Technology (IICT) Director M. Jahirul Islam, PhD., PEng will provide technical assistance.
Regarding the use of the tracking system, he said our Vice Chancellor strives for maximum use of the technology and is working to ensure its use. Automation systems are another effective Sir initiative for quick results. With this tracking system we go one step further. In order to use the technology, a user must first install an app from the Play Store on their mobile phone. After that, you need to log in to the app with your username and password. This information is made available to everyone at the university.
Go to Apps and select Google Maps.
Then everyone at the university can track the location of the vehicles by clicking the “All” button in the app.
A graduate student at the Department of Public Administration at Sabiha Saimon Pushpo University said that sometimes you don’t know where the bus is on the way back from class. Now that I know where the bus is in this tracking system, I can board the bus on time. So we sincerely thank and respect our VC Sir.
Professor Mohammad Anwar Hossain, the university’s head of transport, said: “Our Vice Chancellor has added new buses and minibuses to the transport pool, including ambulances and other vehicles.” This tracking system is a wise use of technology to save time. This allows everyone to know where the vehicles are in a given process. This reduces the suffering of waiting for the car.
