// Enable required APIs in Google Cloud Console:

// - Maps SDK for Android

// - Places API

// - Geocoding API

```



#### Firebase Setup

```bash

# 1. Create Firebase project at https://console.firebase.google.com

# 2. Add Android app with package name: com.pigo.areo

# 3. Download google-services.json to app/ directory

# 4. Enable Realtime Database with rules:



{

  "rules": {

    "trips": {

      "$tripId": {

        ".read": true,

        ".write": true

      }

    },

    "locations": {

      "$userId": {

        ".read": true,

        ".write": true

      }

    }

  }

}

```



### User Roles & Permissions



#### Role Configuration

```kotlin

enum class UserRole {

    PILOT,    // Full trip management + aviation features

    DRIVER,   // Standard trip tracking + navigation

    AIRPORT   // Monitor-only access for ground staff

}



// Automatic role detection based on:

// - Device characteristics

// - Location patterns

// - Manual selection during onboarding

```



### Customization Options



#### Map Styling

```kotlin

// Custom map themes in res/raw/map_style.json

// Supports both dark and light modes

// Aviation-optimized color schemes

```



#### Location Update Intervals

```kotlin

// Role-based update frequencies

val locationRequest = LocationRequest.create().apply {

    interval = when(userRole) {

        UserRole.PILOT -> 1000   // 1 second - high precision

        UserRole.DRIVER -> 3000  // 3 seconds - balanced

        UserRole.AIRPORT -> 10000 // 10 seconds - monitoring

    }

                enableLights(false)

                enableVibration(false)

            }

            notificationManager.createNotificationChannel(channel)

        }

    }

}

```



### Memory Management
