 ABSTRACT

This report is about Bus Transportation Management System for CITNC Devanahalli. The
college’s work was dominantly handled using a paper based system to keep records for
different transactions made each day whereby all the jobs of the bus routes management were
done manually. This is very difficult to the operators who want to handle the many buses in a
day. This study aimed at computerizing the paper based system and automate administration
of bus management of CITNC. The main goal of this project is to create a bus transportation
management system for Bus operators which can eliminate most of the problems experienced
with the current system. The researcher implemented various methods of data collection such
as student details, faculty details who are travelling in the bus and data can be altered by admin.
PYTHON USING MYSQL MODULES was used to develop a back-end database application
while front-end interface was developed PYTHON USING TKINTER & PILLOW
MODULES with to come up with a system that solved the current problem. Implementation of
the system was highly considered when the system was being developed. I recommend the new
system to be implemented so that bus management becomes hassle free in terms keeping track
of the students and faculties who are travel in bus daily and students and faculties information
in the shortest time possible. All information about buses , students and faculties is securely
kept.

CHAPTER:01
INTRODUCTION

1.1 INTRODUCTION

A CITNC transportation management system is a computerized system used to track and

manage the details of students & faculties and operations of a bus transportation system. This
system can include a database to store information on students and faculties information. A
database mini project for a bus transportation management system would likely involve
designing and implementing a database to store and organize this information, as well as
developing a user interface for entering and accessing the data. Additionally, the project
could include features such as real-time tracking of buses, automated schedule generation,
and reporting tools for analyzing data. This is a web-related application that permits us to
approach the entire knowledge regarding the College Transport Management, students,
faculties. This application is also called as “CITNC Transport Management System”.
The Main goals of this application is to automate the details of transportation (pick and drop)
services provided by an College to its Faculty/Student and to manage the related information
in a convenient manner. The purpose is to design a system that allows one to manage the
relevant information. This system allows the administrator to maintain and update all
information of Bus details to their parent and Student. The information’s of all transport
service can maintain by administrator and the administrator can view all selected
information’s. The purpose to design the system that allows search and retrieve related data
easily.
Following are the modules that we have worked on:
1. Administrator Module
➢ Login
➢ Forms
➢ Route Module

1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT

Today all the work, at the time of taking transport services of the students & faculties is done
manually by ink and paper, which is very slow and consuming much efforts and time.
Since the numbers of students & faculties is growing, and management has to handle records
of all the students & faculties, it is facing a little bit of problems in maintaining the records of
students and faculties details.
It is required to Design of a Computerized “CITNC Transportation Management
System”. To speed up and make it easy to use system.

1.3 MOTIVATION AND OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT

1.3.1 MOTIVATION OF THE PROJECT
➢ The main motivation/ aim of our project is to make Bus Transportation facility
easier.
➢ Filling forms for availing Bus Transport and keeping the forms for documentation
purpose and later entering these into Excel sheets manually will waste time and
paper/pages. To overcome this we have developed this project.
1.3.2 OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
➢ It provides “better and efficient” service.
➢ Reduced the workload of a Transportation.
➢ Faster way to get information about the student & faculty who are availing
transport service.
➢ Provide the facility for proper monitoring, reduce paper work and provide data
security.
➢ All details will be available on a click for admin.
➢ To develop a user friendly interface and integrate both the database and the user
interface to a complete working system.
➢ Even a non-technical user can use the system effectively and without any
difficulty.
➢ Deliver the right quantity of output.
➢ Improving the safety and security of students and faculty details.

1.4 PROPOSED SOLUTION & ADVANTAGES

➢ Those who avail transport can directly fill data and these data will be started onto the
database.
➢ The Student and Faculty who are availing the transport service will have advantage as
it saves time and paper work.
➢ The Admin can save, update, delete & view the details of Student & faculty easily in
one interface.
➢ The Students & faculties also have a GUI.
➢ The use of transport management system can also lead to cost savings for bus
operators and transportation agencies by reducing the need for manual data entry,
improving the efficiency of bus routes and details of passengers who are availing
transport service.
➢ A Transportation management system can help make bus transparent by providing
information on how many are availing bus facility.
➢ It can help bus operators track and monitor the details of Students and faculties which
can improve the overall bus transportation service.
➢ Reduce freight expenses.
➢ Increase customer service

CHAPTER:02
SYSTEM DESIGN

2.1 SCHEMA DIAGRAM

➢ The design of the database is called a schema. This tells us about the structural view
of the database. It gives us an overall description of the database.
➢ A database schema defines how the data is organized using the schema diagram.
➢ A schema diagram is a diagram which contains entities and the attributes that will
define that schema.
➢ A schema diagram only shows us the database design. It does not show the actual
data of the database.
➢ Schema can be a single table or it can have more than one table which is related.

Fig 2.1 SCHEMA DIAGRAM OF TRANSPORTATION MANAGEMENT

SYSTEM

Dept. Of CSE, CITNC Page |6

CITNC TRANSPORTATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

2.2ER DIAGRAM
An ER diagram shows the relationship among entity sets. An entity set is a group of similar
entities and these entities can have attributes. In terms of DBMS, an entity is a table or
attribute of a table in database, so by showing relationship among tables and their attributes,
ER diagram shows the complete logical structure of a database.

Guidelines For Drawing ER Diagram:-

When gathering information I have to—

➢ Identify the entity in the system
➢ Identify the attributes of the system
➢ Identify the relationship between the entity

Entity:

Entity is the distinguishable object that has a conceptual or physical existence in the system.
Each entity has some specific attributes. An entity is a fundamental thing of an organization
and it has its own identity, which distinguishes it from other entity. An entity type is the
description of all entities to which a common definition and common relationship and
attribute apply.

Relationship:

A relationship is an “association among entities” Relation is the link between objects through
which a entity is related with other entity.

Attribute:
An attribute is the property or characteristic of an entity. Each entity type has a set of
attribute associated with it.

Dept. Of CSE, CITNC Page |7

CITNC TRANSPORTATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Notation of ER diagram:
The overall logical structure of a database can be expressed graphically by ER Diagram.
These are the notations used in ER Diagram-

RECTANGLE- It represents the entity set.

ELLIPS- It represents attributes.

DIAMONDS-It represents relationship among entities.

LINES- It links attributes to entity and entity set to relationship.
