Abstract
The present invention provides a method for determining real-time location of a vehicle using a mobile device without GPS for the user travelling inside the vehicle. According to the embodiment of the present invention, the location of the vehicle is determined using the locations of the cell-towers to which a mobile phone of a user is connected, and projects these cell tower locations onto the selected route of the user journey to obtain a closest point and thereby determining the user location. The invention also provides the real-time location of the vehicle over internet to users outside the vehicle by crowd-sourcing the cell-tower data of the passengers inside the vehicle.
