Design And Implementation Of Vending Machine Operations Management System Based On The Google Maps

With the improvement of living standards, people attach more and more importance to the promptness of goods purchase. The emergence of the vending machine meet people’s needs well. As not limited by time, place or other conditions, the vending machine has been more and more welcomed among people. Along with the rising number and the expanding scale of vending machines, it increasingly becomes the focus of concern about how to carry through unified, fast and efficient information management to the vending machine. Nowadays, some domestic monitoring management systems of vending machine have the following shortcomings like:defective in instantaneity and visualization, complicated in operating, not good in interface visual performance, and poor user experience. According to the status quo, this paper puts forward a kind of vending machine terminal operation management system based on Google Maps, which improved the system in its instantaneity, visualization and operation through the combination of Google Maps and vending machine operation management.Firstly, this paper introduced the relevant background of vending machine industry and research status both at home and abroad. It put forward the research significance and goal according to the current situation of vending machine industry in our country. Secondly, it introduced the Google Maps and its related technology in detail-mainly elaborated on the Google Maps API and its working principle, A-GPS positioning technique, development of wireless communication and the system related technology development. Thirdly, it determined the principle and objectives of the system design, presented the overall structure of the system-all of which lay a good foundation for the detailed design of the system. Then, the paper introduced the communication gateway, databases, the design and implementation of the background operation management platform. Lastly, it summed up the above and looked far ahead into the future development direction of vending machine industry.Most of the functions and implementations, researched and designed by this system, have passed the PC test and verification. The experiment results showed that the system is safe stable and reliable.
