A secure freight tracking system in rails using GPS technology

The freight tracking system provides security to the freights. It is a more common occurrence of various theft activities in goods train. The GPS and GSM tracking systems have been introduced to avoid such undesirable situations. This paper is also provided with the concept of One Time Password (OTP) system and fingerprint system for the purpose of secured transportation. The full fledged security and monitorization of freights is made possible through the latest GPS tracking system. The system enables to track the freights with necessary safety measures. Although the intelligent train tracking system was introduced in various European countries for providing best service and protection of freight trains, the task of providing high level security to freight trains were missing. However this freight tracking system can able to overcome such kinds of security issues and gives high level security. Also the tracking system has not been implemented in the present and related works of freight tracking system followed in trains. GPS is a satellite that is placed in the top positions that updates the required current location information which is the most vital key for tracking the freights. Improved tracking solutions will reduce the damages to freights. The possibility of delay may occur in the process of transportation of freights from the sender to receiver. This tracking system can overcome such delays through the complete monitorization process of freight trains. Safety to freights is also a major concern of issue in the existing tracking system of trains that can be corrected in this freight system of tracking in trains.
