Title :-

Real-Time Electric Vehicle Station Finder and Locator System

Problem Statement:

The widespread adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) has surged in recent years, driven
by environmental concerns and technological advancements. However, the lack of a
comprehensive infrastructure for EV charging stations remains a significant obstacle
for potential EV owners. To address this challenge, the development of a real-time
Electric Vehicle Station Finder and Locator System is imperative.

The primary objective of this system is to provide EV users with an efficient and
reliable means of locating nearby charging stations in real-time. The system should
offer a user-friendly interface accessible through various platforms, such as mobile
applications and web browsers, enabling users to easily identify available charging
stations based on their current location or desired destination.

Overall, the development of a real-time Electric Vehicle Station Finder and Locator
System presents a multifaceted challenge that requires a comprehensive approach
encompassing data management, user interface design, and seamless integration
with existing technologies. By addressing these challenges effectively, the system has
the potential to significantly enhance the accessibility and usability of EV charging
infrastructure, thereby accelerating the transition towards sustainable transportation.

1. Introduction

The Real-Time Electric Vehicle Station Finder and Locator System (EVSL) aims to
provide electric vehicle (EV) users with a comprehensive platform to locate and
access nearby charging stations in real-time. This document outlines the software
requirements necessary to develop and implement the EVSL system effectively.

1.1 Purpose

The purpose of this SRS is to define the functional and non-functional requirements
of the EVSL system, ensuring clarity and alignment between stakeholders,
developers, and testers throughout the development process.

1.2 Scope

The EVSL system will include features such as real-time station search, user
authentication, station availability updates, navigation integration, and user feedback
mechanisms. The system will cater to both mobile and web-based platforms to
ensure accessibility across various devices.

2. Functional Requirements
1. Data Accuracy and Reliability: Ensuring that the system provides accurate
and up-to-date information regarding the availability, location, and
