I. Project presentation

The current project titled Geolocation of Housing Points in Cameroonian Territory is being carried out as part of a project to
defense in view of obtaining the Higher Technician Certificate (BTS).
Indeed, finding housing in a city in Cameroon remains a challenge today; which is why we are proposing ourselves.
to solve this problem by implementing a geolocation application for housing points.

II. Problematic

Case study

We will study the methods used by the homeless and property owners to respectively find housing and a tenant.
but clearly to bring out the shortcomings.
The homeless, in order to find housing, are faced with the obligation to:
publish housing search notices via their social media accounts;
consult the newspapers and various advertisements;
inquire from acquaintances.
The owners, for their part:
publish tenant search notices via their accounts on social media;
-inserts advertisements in newspapers;
-formulate written requests on signs in front of their houses.

This tedious process keeps the real estate sector in Cameroon at an embryonic stage, hence the need to bring about a real change to the system.
in place.
2. Case critique

We will identify the main weaknesses of this system and the difficulties faced by the different stakeholders.
Housing owners have no means of tracking their properties, making it difficult for a homeless person to find points of
housing. While the offer is available.
Housing availability announcements are not sufficiently disseminated and therefore do not reach the homeless directly.
The distance between the owner and the tenant creates a lack of communication between the parties, leading to a lack of information.
Once installed, tenants tend to arrange the premises as they see fit, especially in terms of layout, which leads to
conflicts that sometimes lead to legal proceedings.

III. Interest of the project

The purpose of this project is to address the shortcomings mentioned above. We therefore propose the solution that seemed most suitable to us.
We are going to develop a geolocation application for housing locations, which will allow an owner to:
easily find a tenant by registering your property(ies) on the platform;
post a notice when one of its properties is available and ready to be occupied;
to record all reservations and visit dates of his accommodation made through the application by a client;
gather all information related to a tenant;
And for a homeless person:
view the various listings made by owners;
discover the list of accommodations already registered on the platform;
-access the necessary information (for rent payments by housing) and the different contacts to reach in case of issues with arrangements or
technique.

 IV. The expected needs or features

1. Functional requirements

The business needs to be covered by our application are:

Locate housing: allow a user to find a housing point in a city in Cameroon;
Create housing: give a property owner the opportunity to register their dwelling(s);
Accommodation booking: the owner may validate a reservation made by a user following an advertisement;
Provide users with availability announcements and a list of registered accommodations;
Record the information related to tenants and landlords;
Provide information regarding rent payment and contact details for technicians to reach in case of problems or breakdowns.
2. Non-functional requirements

These present the internal requirements of the system; hidden from users:
Ergonomic requirements:
A user-friendly, readable, and easy-to-use interface;
A very short response time.
Security:
Traceability of transactions and executed operations;
Authentication: to manage access between users.

V. Target population

These are individuals or legal entities who will be using the application, also referred to as actors.
Administrator:
4
 Notify the users;
Manage the accounts.
Property owner:
-Post announcements for housing availability;
create their assets with all relevant information;
consult the information left by a tenant;
validate a reservation or a request for a site visit.
Homeless:
consult the availability announcements as well as the list of accommodations;
make a reservation or request to visit the habitat;
Tenant :
Consult the information left by an owner (information on payment of rent fees and technician to contact in case of issues).

VI. Project Scope

Our project is limited to the establishment of a web application for geolocation of housing points in Cameroon and its deployment.
from the obtained solution.

2. Estimation of the workload

As part of the estimation of the workload for our project, the method
COCOMO (Constructive COst Model) which was requested due to these
numerous advantages.

Type of project Line number of Charge in Delay in months

code month/man
Simple < 50,000 lines a = 2.5 c = 2.5
b = 1.05 d =0.38
Average 50,000 <= line <= 300 a=3 c = 2.5
000 b = 1.12 d =0.35
Complex >300,000 lines a = 2.8 c = 2.5
b = 1.2 d = 0.32
Table 3: Basic COCOMO Model

The formulas:
Charge= a. (small)b
c. (charge)d
Average team size = workload / time
Or:
Kisl = kilo of source instructions delivered and a, b, c, d depend on the project.
The estimated number of lines of code for the project is 1,000,000.

We will have:
Charge = 3 * (1)1.12=3
Deadline = 2.5 * (3)0.353.7

Average team size=3 /3.7=1 Man

Thus, the estimated average size of the team to carry out the project is
of 1 man and the estimated time for completion is 4 months 3 weeks 3 days.
