Abstract

OBJECTIVE

The term “Open API” has been recently in use by recent trends in social media and web 2.0. It is currently a heavily sought after solution to interconnect Web sites in a more fluid user-friendly manner. We could have many benefits easily development and high efficiency. In this paper, Real-time ambulance location monitoring system including Integrated Maps was designed by using Maps Open API based on Web 2.0.

METHODS

Integrated Maps were used by using Google Maps Open API and Naver Maps Open API respectively. GPS Web Browser was implemented to present integrated Maps on the designed system continuously. The development environments of the designed systems were C# and ASP.NET Platform.

RESULTS

The designed systems contained three parts composed to Integrated Maps, Ambulance System, and Center Monitoring System respectively. Integrated Maps could offer Satellite, Map and Hybrid typed maps at Real-time Ambulance Location Monitoring System.

CONCLUSION

Real-time Ambulance Location Monitoring System could be developed with low cost using a Open API at available emergency situations. We expect to more using Open API in medical systems.
