Location Finder and Event Alert System
Abstract
Location Finder and event alert system will be based on the java using Google maps integration.
This system will be able to find any location by name or latitude and longitude. With this the
developed system will also be able to store events on a particular date and a a particular location
and the system will also generate an alert message when the event about begins.
This system will solve the problem of finding locations and management of Events by
implementing a single system to handle all such queries.
Introduction
Location Finder and Event Alert System will be a Java-based application integrated with a
database and google maps. This system will perform the tasks related to finding locations on a
map and setting events with a particular date on it. This system will provide complete integration
of various services in a single environment.
Motivation
Though we have Google maps but that doesn’t give any event alert system within it. If a user
wants to set some event or reminder with the location on map then this java application will
provide users to set an event of his choice on his particular location.
System structures
Hardware requirement Hard disk: 30GB, RAM: 3 GB (minimum), CPU: dual-core
Software requirement Java 8 (Kordelakos, 2019), NetBeans (Juneau, 2018).
MySQL Database
Google Map
Functions
a) Locate on a particular location.
b) Search bar to find a location, which can be country, city or state on the map.
c) The location will be accurate according to the longitude and latitude.
d) Set event on the location that is selected from the search bar.
User requirements
User Requirement Java8, NetBeans IDE.

Additional features
 Login and signup facility for user.
 Admin can restrict any location from the search for a particular region.
Inherent complexities and challenges
To integrate the google maps in this java application and then integrating the calendar for
events will generate complexity for the developer.
Project Plan
Items Activity date range Activities
1. Week 1 25th Feb – 10th march Research for the system.
2. Week 2 – Week 6 Finding all the requirements.
3. Week 6 – Week 10
15th April – 29th April 2019
Developing the whole system.

1st May – 10th June 2019
Remove bugs, debugging etc.
Conclusion
This proposal consists of all the requirements and the list of features which are going to be
included in the Java-based application. The application consists Map feature for location tracking
and event generator for the future.
