## Overview

The Vehicle Tracking System is a web application developed using Node.js and EJS. It integrates with the Google Maps API to provide dynamic route tracking between two user-input locations. The application simulates a vehicle moving along the calculated route, offering a real-time visualization of the journey.

## Features

- **Google Maps Integration:** Displays maps and routes using the Google Maps API.

- **Dynamic Route Calculation:** Calculates and visualizes routes between two user-input locations.

- **Car Movement Simulation:** Simulates a car's movement along the route with a configurable delay.

- **Real-time Updates:** Uses Socket.IO for real-time updates on vehicle position.

## Technologies Used

- **Node.js:** Backend server

- **EJS:** Templating engine for rendering dynamic content

- **Google Maps API:** For map visualization and route calculation

- **Leaflet.js:** For interactive map functionalities

- **Socket.IO:** For real-time communication between client and server
