Good Morning Maam and Sir,
As decided in the previous meetings, Amity proposed to add GPS Data to the existing data being collected by the PingER App. The team at amity also proposed to use a Cloud Service to store the data, rather than using the proxy server suggested earlier.
All these proposals were carried out in new/separate apps so as to test the feasibility, and if found good enough; then they were incorporated in the main app (which was shown to you in our last video conference).
We are attaching these apps inside compressed archives because gmail flags apks, exes and zips inside zips as false positives and blocks uploading or downloading them. Since 7zip can decompress all kinds of archives like zip, gzip, 7zip, bzip2, iso, rar, et cetera.. so you’ll first need a 7zip file archiver to unzip it (
download here). Inside the
attached "Pinger Apps.zip" file you’ll find two 7zip files –
“PingER-Extension-v6.7z” and
“Prototype App.7z” which we discuss further down in this email. Just extract the first zip file and then unzip whatever is needed.

You will find the apk files in both the 7zip archives. Install whichever you like on your device.
Installation instructions are also attached as a pdf for your convenience.
Also,
we strongly advise you to not distribute this application for widespread use yet. The REST API is not obfuscated yet, and we are using our personal accounts for testing first, so as not to deplete the free-tier quota in a separate deployment account for PingER. Also, we are currently underway resolving an error where in firebase keys can be the host name but encountered an error while setting hostname as key; although the app is currently functioning as intended.
Our next step will be to create a compute service that converts the received JSON data to TXT format for consumption by the data mining team.
We also intend to figure out a way to associate the data received with a PingER MA for better organization in the cloud storage.
Feel free to reach out in case of further queries.
