What is an IoT Smart Parking?
An IoT-based smart parking system provides real-time data
on parking space availability, pricing, payments, and
beyond, evolving as a helpful tool for businesses and
consumers. It positively impacts the environment and traffic.
It also ensures efficient parking reservation and
management.

• Parking lot is saturated : The most severe issue is the increasing
number of vehicles with no increase in the parking space,hence,resulting in the jam.
• Overpay : Sometimes,drivers or customer don’t know how long they will stay at
a specific place. Therefore,they overpay the parking fees somtimes.
• Improper use of existent parking lot: People are always in a
hurry and get impatient to parking properly,which result in insufficient parking space
for other vehicles.
What issues you would come into while
parking vehicles?

What Problems Does
an IoT Smart Parking
Solution Solve?

■ Parking Reservation: It allows drivers to reserve parking spaces
in advance through a mobile application or web interface.
■ Parking Management:this solution monitors parking space
availability and facilitates the billing process.
■ Access Control and Management: Parking lot owners can
use access control and management systems to allow only authorized
users to enter a parking area.

2.IoT Smart Parking
System:
Working Principles &
Architecture

Multiple End Nodes: A smart parking system typically
involves multiple sensors (end nodes) installed at different
parking spots to detect the presence of vehicles.
Coordinator Node: These sensors send data to a central
coordinator node, which then collects this data and sends it to
the cloud for storage and analysis.
Cloud-Based Analysis: The data collected is usually large
and requires cloud-based storage and analysis. This enables
the system to provide real-time updates on parking
availability and other related analytics.
Wireless Sensor Networks: Smart parking systems often
rely on wireless sensor networks to function efficiently, fitting
well with the Level-5 IoT system which is designed for such
solutions.
A smart parking system would most
likely use a Level-5 IoT system. Here
are the key reasons for this:

Publish/ Subscribe model
Publisher: Parking sensors detecting whether a spot is occupied or vacant.
Subscriber: Mobile app or display systems that inform drivers about available parking
spots.
Topic: "ParkingSpotStatus" where each message contains the status of a specific
parking spot (e.g., occupied or vacant).
Flow:
Sensor detects a change: A parking spot becomes available or occupied.
Sensor publishes the update: The sensor publishes this event to the
"ParkingSpotStatus" topic.
Subscribers receive the update: Apps and display systems subscribed to
"ParkingSpotStatus" receive the update and notify drivers accordingly.
This model is particularly well-suited for smart parking systems due to its ability to
handle real-time updates and efficiently manage multiple data sources and
destinations.

PROBLEM? HERE IS THE SOLUTION
SMART PARKING SYSTEM

THREE STAGES OF WORKING
1. INPUT:-
The data is collected by the
sensor, which provides real-time
information about the parking
status free/occupied, about the
Mobile APP which send data
related to the payment or the
parking authorizing title.

2.PROCESSING:-
The central server receives all the
data detected into the input
phase through a radio
communication network and it
guarantees total security in the
data storage activities. Indeed
users’ information are not
traceable at all.

3.OUTPUT:-
The management software
processes the data and makes
them available on the users
terminal’s for the use and the
consultation according to their
competences as administrators,
managers, police or users.

IoT Sensors used to create
smart parking system

Function: Measure distance between objects
using ultrasonic waves.
Benefit: Allows for precise parking.
Drawback: Sensor might get blocked with dirt.
Ultrasonic sensors
Electromagnetic Field Sensors
Function: Detects and measures changes in the
magnetic field.
Benefit: Reacts to the approach of metal objects.

Infrared (IR) Sensors
Function: Emit an infrared signal and catch the
reflection of this signal from the environment.
Benefits:
• Measure temperature.
• Detect movement.
