The proposed emedded system uses G#S for tracing e$act location of an affected person and the G#S
coordinates of the same is transmitted to the relay station% The transmission of G#S coordinates is carried
out y !ndroid !pplication% The relay station is developed using !tmega&' (icrocontroller with Sim)**
GS( module% The relay station enaled with GS( and G#+S can find the nearest availale emergency
facilities that can e provided to the affected person% The nearest facilities are trac,ed y comparing
difference of distance vector with distance vector of affected person using the android application%
