Abstract

Nowadays the possibility to localize a car is a frequently used method for completion of log-book, analysis of company car effectivity, or most importantly as a part of car security systems in the case of their theft. The proposed solution is designed on financially affordable components and platform-independent open-source software. Thanks to intelligent behaviour of the proposed solution which uses cloud storage and freely accessible Google Earth maps, the solution is competitive not only due to its low acquisition costs, but chiefly because of its operating costs and platform independence.
