Package Tracking With Google Maps
05 March 2006 | By Ian in Google, Made by isnoop, PHP, Site Features
I’ve just published an update to my universal package tracking tool that now enables you to view a map of your package’s progress as it travels across the country.
This new mapping addition builds on the original features of being able to track UPS, FedEx, USPS, and Airborne/DHL packages all in one place and having that tracking information published into a personalized RSS feed. The system automatically detects which company your tracking number belongs to and loads the package data for you.
A nice side benefit of this new addition is that I’m developing a pretty robust Google mapping class, helping my other map projects to evolve.

Sweet, how many uses are there to google maps!
06 March 2006 | Atrolon Said:
Looking god.. :) nice tool..
06 March 2006 | Jonathan Said:
very cool bro. great work ;)
06 March 2006 | Ken Said:
Cool idea..
I tried the RSS Feed for my package and it doesn’t seem to work.. I am not sure if I am doing it wrong, or if the link is bad..
You should sell this to UPS :)
06 March 2006 | SuperJason Said:
I have a site that allows you to do package tracking. I had to remove UPS tracking due to a letter from the UPS lawyers, so watch out.
They’re not being nice in getting it working again.

Could you take my personal RFID and track me with my HomieLandSecurity tracking number? (Now that I’m chipped, I know I am real.)

Package Tracking With Google Maps
I’ve thought this would be a cool idea for a long time. Give a UPS tracking number and see where it is and where it’s been.
06 March 2006 | Laura Said:
Very inventive combination, thanks for making this!
06 March 2006 | Travis Said:
Doesn’t seem the DHL/Airborne tracking is working correctly. When I try a DHL number it always tells me it was delievered from norcross, GA to macon, GA no matter what tracking number I enter.

Now I want to purchase things via mail order just to watch them travel!

I tried tracking a FedEx package (260065236666185) and got some strange results. It seems to get “lost” with the Secaucus, NJ sort facility.

I also would love to have this as a dashboard widget. Even if that doesn’t happen though, this is very cool. Thanks for putting it together.
06 March 2006 | franky crisp Said:
can you do a mashup of craigslist YARDSALES locations and Google Earth; many people (me!) would like to optimally plan their yardsale tour based on proximity and neighborhood. A ‘bird’s eye’ view would help… and YOU’RE THE MAN TO MAKE IT HAPPEN!
06 March 2006 | cabalist Said:
Seriously, this rocks! A dashboard widget? Sure, that would be cool. A working RSS feed–stellar ;) But overall this is totally cool…the UPS people will proably have a cow over this (but only if they are total tools)…but until then I will use this daily!
Thanks for all of the time you spent on this–it was worth it from my pov!
06 March 2006 | Sebastian Rodriguez Said:
Hi!
I’m developing a web-tracking project (FedEx, TNT and DHL are involved), and i’m very interested in your work.
Is the code avaiable? (GoogleMaps integration)
Please, send me a mail if you want to do business :)
06 March 2006 | Mark Murphy Said:
Keep getting an error. Running IE. time in log file should be 3:50PM PST feel free to cantact me if you need more details. Map and everything seems to pop up, but at the end of loading error is generated.
Also is the code available?
06 March 2006 | Ian Said:
Unfortunately, I cannot open source the code on this project. Last year, I entered into a two-year exclusive licensing agreement with another website and won’t be able to release code specifics until 2007.
07 March 2006 | Pip Said:
Where are you getting the tracking data from? I’m tracking a UPS package, and it shows more specifics than the UPS site does. Specifically, UPS.com only shows the package as having departed New Jersey, while your site also shows that it is enroute to California. Sweet!
07 March 2006 | techbee Said:
Goodies never end at Isnoop. When are you going to fill the “About” page?
07 March 2006 | Sebastian Rodriguez Said:

What a pity… Please, can you soy me where can i find the WebServices Definitions of DHL and FedEx?
I will try to do myself :/
07 March 2006 | Steve Webb Said:
I’m not getting any maps – it says that there is no imagery for this zoom level, but I zoom in and out and still no images. What’s up?
07 March 2006 | Steve Webb Said:
Try this one: Has data, but no mapping data: 1ZX2889V0392276225
07 March 2006 | Ian Said:
Okay, I’ve upgraded the geocoding system to be self-learning.
My primary data source is now located on-server.
If there is a point it can’t find, it fails over to an online service and adds the new entry to the datbabase.
If the online service is unavailable or can’t come up with an answer, my system then makes a smart guess as to where to plot the point.
07 March 2006 | Ian Said:
Ferglets,
I’ll add the estimated arrival date for any service that provides it.
Sebastian & Pip,
The APIs for all of the major shipping companies can be found on their respective websites. Some are more hidden than others, but they all offer decent documentation.
Techbee,
I’ll update that tonight. =)
07 March 2006 | Birdman Said:
Cool tool, but all DHL packages seem to be around Norcross, GA. That doesn’t seem likely……..
08 March 2006 | Sky-Byte Said:
Oooh, nice. I look forward to the current tracking number I have in transit becoming active so I can really play with this.
I’m also in the process of putting together a Firefox Search Plugin for this!
08 March 2006 | Nathan Said:
I would love to see this idea in a widget for the Mac… Its brilliant!!
08 March 2006 | on-top-of-it Said:

23 March 2006 | Ian Said:
Regarding FedEx numbers appearing as USPS:
FedEx ships via USPS sometimes. Strange but true. When they do that, they get USPS format tracking numbers that you can only track via FedEx. I’m working on this problem right now.
DHL is being unreliable right now and their customer service response is pretty poor. I’ll bring them back online as soon as possible. In the meantime, you’ll see strange results when using them.
Thanks for your comments, I appreciate the feedback!

YOU ROCK!! Thanks!!
15 May 2006 | E Houli Said:
Hi There!!
Your package tracking works better than the actual one in UPS. Yours gave me a real status, as my package was already in the US, while the UPS site still showed it was still in Germany!!
Although is good, it has a glitch, it crashes when loading the Map and IE (I’ve 6.0) goes to Page not available.
Thanks!

I really enjoy your tracking system. The map is a nice extra but I have to tell you the thing that has impressed me after using it for about 6 months is that your site seems to always have 1 and sometimes 2 more scans than even the FedEx site itself. If I check a package here and then on FedEx.com, I can usually count on FedEx.com being 1 scan/location/step behind.
Great job!

The maps appear to have broken today. What’s up? Also, I see you have not yet updated to the google api v2. I just changed my google maps testing page over to v2 recently, is why I say.
07 November 2006 | Anonymous Said:
Regarding the breakage, The error on the page is a javascript error that map.spec is not defined. The broken line is
var minZoom = map.spec.getLowestZoomLevel(center, delta, map.viewSize);
I suspect that google has updated their api and you need to fix your script. I downloaded the generated page and switched to a preset zoom level, and then it shows a map, but for some reason without icons.
It would be really great if you could open source this nifty page so that other people can hack on it too. Out of curiosity, what language is it written in?

Hey thanks for the reminder. I’d updated the code but hadn’t published it pending a DHL change. The tool is now using the latest API, has better UPS/FedEx tracking number differentiation, and has 100% better DHL coverage!

Could you use the driving directions to show the real path? it would only work for truck or surface/ground shipping… but can you know that for each of the services? e.g. when fedex says “loaded on truck” then map the next segment as driving directions.
Also, could you do a lookup for “fedex” or something to find a business address so it was even more precise? currently it goes to the centre of the city area returned as the location. But you can ask google for “fedex shipping facility” or “fedex -kinkos” int the city, and try to get a real address.
09 July 2007 | Eric R Said:
I had the same thought as Tom Tobin- it would be nice to see the “fastest route” driving directions used for the line.

He copied one of them and put the same label on 2 different packages..UPS said I may never see the package again..as one was delivered but the other one worth $30,000 could not be tracked because it had the same label and tracking number attached to the one that was delivered, I have been out of my mind for 48 hours, after finding your site and seeing where the package is my life has changed, I can sleep and I would like to buy stock in your company and send you some candy..cheers mate.

This is great, it told me more about where my package was then the official USPS “tracking” information did. I knew the bozos at the post office missent my package but I didn’t know where too. Only USPS would take 6 days to deliver a package from 45 minutes away, they could have walked it to me quicker. Thanks again, this really helped.

Way very cool. My company sends me the day’s UPS tracking numbers and if our clients want tracking info, they email me. Not very efficient.
Well, now I’m going to start emailing them back the link to your tracking instead of the “official” tracking.

i just tried placing landmarks by hand, then i found out about your nice tool :)
could you add support for non-us waypoints? my packages usually come a long way and it would be nice if something else than the us map is shown.
apparently google maps recognises international fedex locators just fine, so i guess it wouldn’t be difficult to add this.

Hi,
Great job here.
Quesiton: right now I eMail my customers the Federal Express tracking #. They then go to fedX.com enter the tracking # and see where the package is.
Is there a way for me to give them the tracking # so when they click on it, it will go right into isnoop.net to show the google maps just like your example above?

I’m a Detective with the Baltimore County Police Department. We just completed a federal investigation for narcotics distribution. I’m now completing a forensic analysis of the suspect’s computer. I’ve called UPS, Fed-Ex, DHL, etc and none will offer any help.
I’m trying to find all instances of tracking numbers on the suspect’s computer. Can you provide the specific numbering convention for each carrier. I know UPS is normally “1Z”. I’m trying to find all instances of the suspect tracking packages. Knowing the specific numbering format will help greatly with the analysis of the computer.
Please email me rpeacock@baltimorecountymd.gov or call 410-887-1867. I’d like to see if you know the numbering formats for each carrier.
Thanks…

Ian,
You’re still having problems with smart post I note (the fedex service delivered by usps). Any chance that you can tweak the code so that if it shows as a USPS number but the result is “No record of that item” then you hand it over to fedex and see what response you get from them?

usps started using a longer tracking number for some reason and your tracking map application does not accept it. any chance your going to update it to accept these new longer tracking numbers? (has anyone else run in to any?) i love this application, its a great use of gmaps
