CoordinatesTracker

Below is an example of how to begin developing a basic real-time GPS tracking system using Python. This system focuses on ethical use, such as tracking a user's own device or shared data with permission. It integrates with GPS APIs and displays the data on a map. --- Step 1: Install Required Libraries Ensure the following Python libraries are installed: pip install flask flask-socketio geopy requests folium --- Step 2: Backend (Python Server) A simple Flask server to collect and process location data. from flask import Flask, request, jsonify from flask_socketio import SocketIO from geopy.geocoders import Nominatim app = Flask(__name__) socketio = SocketIO(app) # Store location data (for demo purposes; use a database in production) user_locations = {} # Endpoint to update location @app.route('/update_location', methods=['POST']) def update_location(): data = request.json user_id = data.get('user_id') latitude = data.get('latitude') longitude = data.get('longitude') if not user_id or not latitude or not longitude: return jsonify({'error': 'Invalid data'}), 400 # Save the location user_locations[user_id] = {'latitude': latitude, 'longitude': longitude} # Notify listeners of the update socketio.emit('location_update', {user_id: user_locations[user_id]}) return jsonify({'status': 'Location updated successfully'}) # Endpoint to fetch user location @app.route('/get_location/<user_id>', methods=['GET']) def get_location(user_id): location = user_locations.get(user_id) if location: return jsonify(location) return jsonify({'error': 'User not found'}), 404 # Reverse geocoding (optional) @app.route('/get_address', methods=['POST']) def get_address(): data = request.json latitude = data.get('latitude') longitude = data.get('longitude') if not latitude or not longitude: return jsonify({'error': 'Invalid data'}), 400 geolocator = Nominatim(user_agent="geoapi")
