Is there a way to track a GPS device using PHP?

Question

In my upcoming project, I need to track GPS device attached to vehicles. Is there any way this is possible through PHP or ASP.Net

Answer 1

first this device have to send data somehow, then you need to capture it in some DB then present via PHP, ASP.Net or anything else. there is no such class GPSDevice with method GetPosition that will do all the magic.

Answer 2

Although there are "standard" protocols at the hardware level, adherence varies. And AFAIK, as yet there is no kernel support for GPS devices as standard in Linux (I'm not sure that there should be either). However you might find gpsd useful.
