SAFE AND SECURE PARKING SYSTEM BASED ON IOT

Abstract

In recent times the concept of smart cities has gained great popularity. Thanks to the evolution of the Internet of things the idea of smart city now seems to be achievable. To optimize the efficiency and reliability of urban infrastructure, consistent efforts are being made in the field of IoT. The IoT tackles issues such as traffic congestion, insufficient car parking facilities, and road safety. This paper present a cloud-based IoT integrated smart parking system. The proposed Smart Parking system consists of an on-site IoT module implementation that is used to track and report the availability status of each single parking space. A mobile application is also provided that allows an end user to check the parking space availability and book a parking space accordingly. The paper also describes a high-level view of the system architecture. Towards the end, the paper discusses the working of the system in form of a use case that proves the correctness of the proposed model.
