Ticketing process is a tedious process that involves a lot of concentration in the part of the employee, who needs to take
a note on the tickets issued between various bus stations(the region that is maintained for pricing) to the passengers
getting inside the bus. The ticketing process gets even tougher if there is a number of passengers using the bus at the
same time. In order to reduce the workload and avoid fraudulently, there has been an increased number of issues
related to passengers traveling without tickets despite imposing strict laws. There is a need for an external checker who
needs to check the passengers to reduce the fraudulent.Thus introducing a new method involving an E-Ticket is used it
is generated in the form of QR code. The ticket consists of the information of the source, destination, and a number of
tickets selected by the passenger. Then based on the information provided, the QR will be generated with a unique id.
The payment is done through the wallet in the system. The wallet is created for every user who is registering in the
system in order to handle the payments. The use of paper and cash in the existing system is replaced. There is a lot of
disadvantages that is there in using the paper tickets where the tickets are easily damaged and it’s not easy to keep
track of them on the side of the passenger. The organization should invest in printing paper and with an increasing
protest against destroying trees for paper and also the production of dye for coloring those papers are all against the
environment. The Data is generated in large numbers, in the event of ticket vending and is used for analysis of the bus
route preferred by the users/ or the routes that handle a large group of passengers. The in-built GPS available in the
conductors' system is enabled and it allows the user to locate the bus using the information that is been collected from
the conductor’s device. The whole system works in a centralized data center sharing information from different data
sources.
