This paper discusses vehicle tracking using raspberry pi as the vehicle component. The location of the vehicle is obtained by three different methods. One of the methods of obtaining the location is by GPS receiver. The second method is by cell tower location. The third method is by triangulation of nearby cell tower location based on the signal strength. In addition to this a method of comparing the path to be followed and the actual path and alert being sent in case of deviation from actual path is also implemented. There is also facility for estimating the time of arrival of the vehicle at a particular point based on the geodic distance and the average speed. All these facilities are very useful in any kind of vehicle tracking system like one implemented for a school bus. Also an intelligent alert message having the current location is made using text to speech converter library in python.
