Abstract

At present, access to Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) for domestic use is carried out in a traditional way, by means of gas transport vehicles that circulate through cities. The problem with this form of distribution is the dependence on schedules and routes of mobile gas distributors, being an ineffective way to commercialize gas for domestic use and bringing consequences like vehicular traffic, noise pollution and environmental pollution. For this reason, a mobile application was developed that allows the optimization of the gas distribution process using software development tools such as Android Studio, Firebase and Google APIs.
