EasyTrack protocol - Locate by cell tower
I also activated the "geolocation" setting and even so I was not successful...
<entry key = 'geolocation.enable'> true </entry>
<entry key = 'geolocation.type'> google </entry>
<entry key = 'geolocation.key'> YOUR API KEY </entry>
It's not supported yet. Only GPS locations are supported for this protocol.
Feel free to send an email to support address if you are interested in sponsoring implementation.
Dear Anton,
Friend, sorry for the joke, but can you get some rest amid so many questions that I see you answering and helping in this forum? lol
On the subject that I wrote above, could you give me an example of where these "geolocation" entry keys are used?
Best Regards!
What do you mean where? They are used for all protocols that support WiFi and cell based locations.
Don't these other protocols send something like the "JZ" command (similar to EasyTrack)?
Yes, something similar.
how many hours of work do you estimate it will take to implement this functionality for the EasyTrack protocol?
Probably not more than 1-2 hours. Format looks pretty simple.
In this case, do I pay and do you implement it in a separate/private package just for my use?
Ideally in open source. Please send an email if you want to discuss more details.
sent :-)
Hi!
I would like to know if the Traccar platform is already prepared to read the "JZ" command (locate by cell tower) that is generated by devices with the EasyTrack protocol (port 5056).
Note: My tracker is already sending the JZ commands and I can see them coming from the Traccar log file, however this information received does not appear in the web application.
What do I have to do to enable reading of this type of location?
3.31 locate by cell tower - JZ
When there is no GPS signal, device will upload this data
Format sent from device：
*ET,SN,JZ,RESULT,CELL_ID,LAC,MCC,MNC#
RESULT=0, means no need to reply from server.
RESULT=1, means server reply the detail information of the cell tower.
CELL_ID：cell tower ID
LAC: code of the position
MCC＝mobile country code
MNC＝mobile network code
Example: ET,135790246811221,JZ,1,CELL_ID,LAC_N,460,00#
Server reply:
*ET,135790246811221,JZ, Msg#
Msg：msg is Unicode string
