Abstract

Emergency Facilities such as fire stations have very poorly managed time response records. In fire stations they manage all their records on physical paper or files, they do not have any computer system through which they can trace the location of all their vehicle and coordinate their fire truck. This tracking system uses the SIM7600X 4G HAT module and an Arduino Nano that then views data on an Internet of Things (IoT) dashboard. The system is a real time tracking system, which will continuously monitor a moving vehicle and report the status of the vehicle on demand. The SIM7600X 4G HAT module has a Global Positioning System (GPS) modem that uses satellite technology for its navigation system, and will continuously give data such as coordinates, speed, distance travelled and others. The SIM7600X 4G HAT module also have a Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) modem that internetworks to the Internet and provide cellular network for sending data into the IoT Dashboard. The IoT dashboard that this system uses is called the ThingsBoard. This system will be installed inside the emergency vehicle. When the emergency vehicle departs from the base station, the time response will start counting and the base station can start to monitor the real time movement of the vehicle and also its speed. All the recorded data will be store in the ThingsBoard database.
