GPS Based E-Toll Gate collection System

Developing countries like India require a lot of digitization, in all possible ways. Traffic congestion at toll plazas could be greatly avoided by the inclusion of GPS based system. The proposed system allows us to detect a sum of money from the traveler, based on the distance covered on the highway. Many times, users end up paying the entire fee. which can be avoided by using this implementation. The proposed module is an automatic E-Toll gate system using GPS and Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) modules. Proposed system make use of the GPS to mark 2 coordinates. The first coordinate is the place where the vehicle with the GPS and GSM modules attached, enters and the second coordinate is the place where the vehicle leaves the highway/taxable road. Here, transparency is also ensured as a driver can know the distance he traveled and the charge he pays is according to it, unlike the current system wherein he pays an amount, preset by the authorities. Manual intervention is completely eradicated in this system, leading to more accurate results, by reducing possible errors.
