| description | Due to the increasing private ride nowadays, the challenges concerning traffic congestion and environmental pollution are becoming more and more critical. Hence, a carpooling mobile application will be developed in this project, with the aim to connect the commuters with similar routes and promote carpooling in individual cars. Furthermore, this application will help in reducing the traffic congestion, minimizing carbon emission and lessen the stress of individuals on current transportation infrastructure.
In this application, there are two user roles, which the users can choose to be a driver or a passenger. As a driver, the user can post ride by entering the ride details, such as origin, destination, departure date and time, number of empty seats, and price per pax. Besides, the driver can manage the ride request made by the passenger. On the other hand, as a passenger, the user can search for relevant rides by entering search details such as origin, destination, departure date, number of passengers and the acceptable radius from the origin and destination points. The passenger can then make request on the preferable ride.
In addition, when driver starts the ride, both driver and passengers can track the ride location on the route shown at the map view and view the estimated distance and duration. After the ride ends, both driver and passengers are required to rate on the ride experience. Furthermore, an in-app messaging features is also included to allow both drivers and passengers to communicate with each other.
In conclusion, this carpooling mobile application addresses the challengers of traffic congestion and environmental pollution by promoting shared ride. The main features of this application include post ride, search ride, route tracking, user-rating feature, and in-app messaging feature. It ensures convenience, safety, reliability, and effective communication for both drivers and passengers. Furthermore, by following agile methodology in the development, the application will be more flexible, adaptable, and able to have continuous improvement throughout the project lifecycle. |
