E-Rickshaws management for small scale farmers using big data-apache spark

Abstract

E-Rickshaw provides environment friendly, in-expensive, time-effective, suitable mode of transportation and plays a vital role in transportation in cities. E-Rickshaw lacks regularization, frequency and management, which increases the burden on the E-Rickshaw management system. Paper aims at developing a real-time RFID based E-Rickshaw Management System for small scale farmers, which focuses on scheduling the e-rickshaw according to passenger demand in a real time environment. The main focus of this system is to evolve user friendly, flexible and convenient E-Rickshaw management system for small scale farmers that would cater the needs of vegetables and fruits and reduce the traffic congestion in the city. This Real Time-Based System is helpful, precise, secure and flexible. The system will use Global Positioning System (GPS) and Radio Frequency Identification Tags (RFID) to get the location of E-Rickshaw and information about passengers and drivers. The system will be working on Real Time with a merged function of RFID and GPS which will sustain the detailed information about farmers and E-Rickshaw.
