Track location, speed, heading and altitude in real-time or as a one shot request for a user. Add the pieces of data to your database, then recall the data when needed to show their position markers on a map of your choosing.
your old videos got me started into web developing to a point where i made a business for myself. hopefully i can buy you a beer one day. thanks for everything adam u shifted my life in ways you don't even know!
Welcome back, Adam, is been a while, that is my Master in Programming. From beginner to advance programming all being always comprehensively explained. Thanks as always. Maybe, one of these days you will have to advice/teach us on which framework to go for, although am not a fan of frameworks, I like being creative with the vanilla languages. Since, some industries want us to use these frameworks that is why I have started learning React and Node.js and easier for me with the knowledge of JavaScript. Thanks bro!
Nice to hear from you Godwin. As you stated, the key to being proficient with any of the many 3rd party tools that already exist, and the hundreds more to come soon, is knowledge of the core language they are built with. You'll more easily master any that emerge and be more useful to a wider array of clients/projects. Wishing you success buddy!
This is great. I’m returning to the IT field. (Or working towards it). My son got a ticket directly my 85 in a 45. As practice and as extra kicker for punishment I wanted to build something along these lines to keep up with his speed. Thanks so much for getting me started.
Woah 85 in a 45... that's bold. Yeah make the program set off alarms somewhere and SMS text message if his speed goes over a number you set. I have a SMS text tutorial for PHP here somewhere.
Good luck with yours. I'm programming a mobile app to allow the minority/demonized heterosexual community to do quick find/hook-ups in alley-ways behind dumpsters.
This time I plan to leave for 2 years, then upload one 3 minute video. Just kidding, I'm about to add non-developer content to my channel to spice things up.
That must've been telepathy... I'm currently not subbed to the channel any more but was just thinking to myself "gee, wonder what my guy Adam's been up to lately" - and BOOM - new video just a mere couple hours ago 😃 Really wish we'd see more of you again, like back in the (g)olden days (anyone remember Adam's Actionscript vids?)
Hello and thanks for the kind words. I have hopes to get more active making videos. I had 2 children, that shifted my time and focus for a while but I am getting bored with them ;)
@@AdamKhoury please come back. Thanks for responding. I really enjoyed your method of teaching. A few things have changed since l visited your channel last Hope you can bring us to speed with the latest programming languages.
Thank you for the video I have database with real time lat long Basically i need my script to get the lat long from database and show them on the map ..
@@AdamKhoury The funny thing is this is my area of the country/world. I thought, wow this tutorial is so good it somehow geotracks the viewer and updates the thumbnail for their general location. 😀
Unfortunately no... I think I eventually put most of its material into free videos here on YT, and haven't done sprite animation tutorials for a while now. But I may revisit the subject if I happen to do new work using sprites. I think I only sold the ebook for a couple of weeks.
So if you want to get the live location of your user you will have to constantly send their location updates to the database before pulling the location to plot it on a map for you to see? That would take a lot of I/O into the database, that would cost a lot if you have hundred of users you want to track live.
Yes sir, expensive data transfer for a lot of concurrent users without a doubt. But it depends on your method of data transfer. Socket connections may be the best option, I am not sure. I would develop a socket server in either Python, PHP or Node, then connect the user to that for intaking their ever changing location. One way to lighten the load would be to put their location in their local storage(cookie) and first check to see if they have moved. If they are staying still, do not transfer data to database. Only update database if your system senses they have moved from last known location. Hope that helps a bit, but it is an expensive system on the back end if you have a lot of users being tracked and shown to everyone.
Write a database query using any database of your choosing to insert the coordinates obtained by this, on a timed basis. JavaScript can transfer this data to your server side language or tech. Your server side language or JavaScript both can do things on a repeating timed execution basis and insertion of data to database can occur at an interval that you specify. Short intervals would use much more server resources than longer intervals, so be gentle on your server.
No problem sir. One can use an Ajax POST call to pass those pieces of data to PHP then to database of their choosing. I have some Ajax tutorials with PHP, but look around at other examples too.
Not sure partner. My file was on my local computer. My internet connection was on. Maybe try uploading the file to a server online and testing there if all else fails. Good luck!
Eai gente. Estou criando um sistema de rastreamento de uns equipamentos personalizados de uma empresa privada! Tô procurando alguém com experiência para realizar a integração de um modelo de rastreador e a criação de uma página para essa integração ser automática. Alguém conhece alguém ou tem essa experiência ?
