Smart Parking based System for smarter cities

摘要

As we all know that, India is getting motorized According to the report generated by Pune Municipal Corporation the city has more than 25 lakh registered two and four- wheelers, but has parking space for only 1,800 vehicles. It maintains just 16 off-street parking facilities across the city, which is woefully short considering an estimated two lakh vehicles are added to the tally every year. The same scenario can be currently seen in each and every metro city. Like this we have same scenarios in the different big and crowded metro cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai, Banglore etc. So finding the parking slot is like game of musical chair. Especially, it becomes more difficult when people have to pay hefty amounts for privately managed parkings arranged in malls and shopping complexes. The other scenario is that people choose to park their vehicles on road which becomes uneasy for people walking on the roads and also there is more chances of the vehicles getting towed for illegal parkings Hence, to encounter the above problem we have proposed an android application which will be helpful for the people to find their parking slots digitally. It will help people to find the parking nearest available parking slot based on the location. It will also direct the user to the allotted parking location. The charges of parking can be paid digitally or through vending machines. This application will be able to remove the stress of the vehicle owner and also the inconveniency that people faced everyday because of random parking on the roads.
