Lack of effective and real-time information in agricultural logistics distribution, which will cause the vehicle cannot accurately obtain the current location and cannot select the best distribution route, results in serious vehicle load and resource waste. Aiming at the problems, this paper proposes an logistics distribution vehicle scheduling system based on LBS. Using three-tier system architecture including application layer, logic layer and data layer, the system provides services of location, navigation, route planning, surrounding location query and agricultural news.
