Map My Way
This web
application will facilitate users from any organization to define routes on
Google Maps (or any other map source can be used). Once the routes are
established, the other colleagues (passengers) from the same organization could
use this information to ask people to drive them to home/Points Of Interest
(POI). The application will allow passengers to view the route, contact the
person who has the same or similar route, via Email/SMS. Following are further
details for this application:
Actors
Admin, Passenger, Driver (A driver can be a passenger
too, and a passenger can be a driver too, so you can either treat them as two
actors, or you can treat them as a single actor)
Driver/Passenger

multiple addresses (locations) on Map such as for Home, Office, Weekend etc.
2.
Minimum
information about an address will be two locations (start and end) on the
route. Adding of locations will include Latitude and Longitude. In search
results all the possible information from an already defined information should
be accessible, such as:

the map that should be very similar if not the same as following:
3. Manage route information provided in
point number 2 above (edit, delete etc)
4. Along with addresses, the information
about departure, arrival time will also be saved.
5. Define self-owned vehicle information
and License information. Define the specification of the vehicle such as:
Capacity, Fuel System (Petrol/CNG/Diesel etc).
6. Search through the defined addresses
(passengers can search the addresses for which they can ask someone (driver) to
drop them on the way.
7. Manage circles, a user can add,
update, and delete other users to their circle in 3 privacy categories (e.g.
Private, Limited, Public). So that a user can define what level of detail is
visible based on the privacy categories, to other users.
8. Application will display a vehicle
icon (a van, car or bike etc) for the users who are drivers (having own
vehicle), wherever applicable.

Admin
Features
10.
Admin will be responsible to manage this
application for: Manage Users (Add, Update, Delete etc).
11.
The information accessible to admin will be
encrypted so that the admin user can’t view any user’s personal details
(passwords, CNIC, Vehicle Info, License, User’s Circle information etc). So it
means admin can manage users with best possible access of user’s data that
allow admin enough power to operate, and still hide user’s sensitive
information from admin.
Bonus Feature
12.
The web site should adapt itself well in all
sizes of displays (desktop, wide screen, tablets smart phones etc). Bootstrap
CSS technique or any other technique can be followed for this purpose.
(This is extra feature and any student/group will
achieve bonus marks for its proper implementation)
