Ambulance is a medically equipped vehicle
that transports patients to treatment facilities that have
tested to be a lifesaver throughout several emergency
cases. One of the issues during transportation of patients
is traffic related problems. We studied various
approaches available for vehicle tracking systems. After
going through various research papers we found these
techniques, i.e. GPS based tracking, RFID device, Google
API, RESTful API which were proposed earlier and
hence we deduce that existing ambulance routing
technique is not effective as a result of there is lack of help
provided to them during the transparent passage through
the traffic congestion. This issue arises due to outdated
dedicated GPS systems, no proper communication
between police and ambulance and difficulty in providing
accurate location of the ambulance. To tackle this issue,
we propose a system which will help the traffic police
easily track any upcoming ambulance with its priority
using a mobile application. This system will help in fast,
economical and efficient traffic control providing safe,
easy and quick passage to the ambulance
