Real-Time Cab Booking System

The rapid growth of urban transportation and digital technologies has significantly increased the demand for efficient and reliable cab booking services. Traditional transportation systems often suffer from issues such as long waiting times, lack of ride tracking, inefficient driver allocation, and poor communication between passengers and drivers. To overcome these limitations, this paper presents an Intelligent Online Cab Booking System with Real-Time Ride Tracking, designed to provide a secure, scalable, and user-friendly transportation management platform.

The proposed system enables passengers to book rides online, track cab locations in real time, calculate fare automatically, and communicate with drivers efficiently. The application includes separate modules for passengers, drivers, and administrators to ensure smooth ride management and operational control. The system also supports secure authentication, ride history management, driver availability monitoring, and online payment integration.

The frontend of the application is developed using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React, while the backend is implemented using Spring Boot and REST APIs. MySQL is used for secure data storage and management. GPS-based location tracking and real-time ride status updates improve ride accuracy and user convenience.

Experimental analysis shows that the proposed system reduces manual booking complexity, improves transportation efficiency, enhances customer satisfaction, and provides secure and reliable ride management services.
