Introduction Travelling has become a part of our life, when we travel to an unknown place we will not be known whether that place has arrived or not. Even if we travel to a known place which is little far away, it is natural we fell asleep. So we will not be known whether the destination is passed or not. Increase in Android mobile device usage made us to target our platform to Android. Android is a free and open source operating system, which is by Google. This operating system is very powerful. It has many new and advanced features. GeoManager GeoManager is a standalone standalone model application, application, which uses the positioning system of the smart phones (GPS) to locate the user’s current location on the map. The user will get with several location-based services as described in later section. This software is supposed to make in a user-friendly interface, so that normal persons can use it without efforts. In addition, it is a very efficient tool too.

1.0. Introduction 1.1. Purpose
The purpose of this document is to present a detailed description of the GeoManager System. It will explain the purpose and features of the system, the interfaces of
the system, what the system will do, the constraints under which it must operate and how the system will react to external stimuli. 1.2. Scope of Project
The scope of a project outlines the utility of the project. It lists out the targeted audience and how the project is to benefit them more than the existing system. There have been many attempts at integrating Global Positioning System into a navigation-assistance system. GPS receivers are used for navigation, positioning, time dissemination, and other research. Navigation receivers are made for aircraft, ships, ground vehicles, and for hand carrying by individuals. Precise positioning is possible using GPS receivers at reference locations providing corrections and relative positioning data for remote receivers. Geo Surveying is an example. Monitoring of ground movements by repeated or continuous measurements can be done. GPS can be economically employed for all types of survey mapping and tracking work in conjunction with other uses.
1.3 Overview
The remainder of this document contains full description of the project for the owners of the Geo-Manager. It gives all the functions performed by the system and concerns in details each of the system functions and actions for the software developers assistance. The following sections cross-referenced by topic to increase understanding by any group involved.

Fig.2.1 System Description
Product perspective deals with whether the project is sellable in today’s world; because now mobile is part of our life. This technology helps to add more features in mobile. This product is an application package for android phones. The Geo-Manager System is a mobile application to be used by any type of users who have android mobile phone. This system benefits greatly for location monitoring mainly when a user is on a journey. The system makes it easy to find the current location, to trigger alarm on reaching the destination, office-cab monitoring, navigation map, sms facility and real time compass. The system enables the users to keep track of their journey
path. The system also provides an easy means of accessing the map and compass so that the users can get the location information all the time.
2.2 Product Function
The Geo-Manager system has six main components: Location: The time and temperature of any place will be displayed on the phone when the
place is mentioned. Journey: By this feature, when a user specifies the destination, the destination proximity
from the current location will be displayed. The user can set the destination of travel and GPS alarm will trigger an alarm when the proximity to the location is equal to the user set value. SMS: When the user selects “send location SMS”, the user gets an SMS specifying the
current location, distance of the current location from the starting location at the current time. Compass: Displays a real time compass which shows the direction. Map: This feature displays the navigation map. Office-Cab Monitoring: GPS based office cab monitoring system very useful for the
safety of female employees. This system records the travel path and location with timings. Also records the destination of each employee home.
2.3 User Characteristics
In order to use this software user should be familiar about the android phones. Users must know how to use android phones. Basic knowledge about GPS, GPRS, and Application Installation etc are necessary conditions. 2.4 Design and Implementation Constraints
