Next step is to setup the tracking server, the name of the software is Traccar and here is their website. Relay GPS Tracker (2G only): Link1, Link2, Link3, Link4.Raspberry Pi 4 Model B: Link1, Link2, Link3, Link4.If you live in a country where 2G networks have been decommission you will need to buy a 3G enabled GPS tracker, they are more expensive and the instructions provided here for configuring the tracker, might not be 100% compatible with a 3G enabled GPS tracker. Pick your favorite local operator for this but keep in mind this particular GPS model only works on 2G networks. For the GPRS connection between the GPS tracker and the server you will need to provide a data enabled sim card.

This is a brilliant idea because if you hide this under the dashboard, nobody will suspect what the real function is. I've used a model which is disguised as an automotive relay. For reference I used a raspberry pi 4 and while you might already have this I will still place some links below to places where you can get a raspberry pi 4.Īlso very important is the GPS tracker. At the core of this project lies the raspberry pi, any model should work, but if you use one of the latest models you should get better performance, meaning software will run smoother and it will be faster to install.
