ABSTRACT
The project is entitled SMART PARKING SYSTEM using Iot, the major motivation of this project is to reduce the traffic congestion in roads, multi-storeyed buildings, and malls due to the unavailability of parking spaces. The project displays the nearest empty slot if present concerning user location. Our project aims to make efficient use of parking spaces. We track vacant slots in the parking space and assign that to the user. Smart parking systems as described above can lead to an error-free, reliable, secure, and fast management system. In recent times the concept of smart cities has gained great popularity. Thanks to the evolution of the Internet of Things the idea of a smart city now seems to be achievable. Consistent efforts are being made in the field of IoT to maximize the productivity and reliability of urban infrastructure. Problems such as traffic congestion, limited car parking facilities, and road safety are being addressed by IoT. The proposed Smart Parking system consists of an on-site deployment of an IoT module that is used to monitor and signalize the state of availability of each single parking space. A mobile application is also provided that allows an end user to check the availability of parking spaces and book a parking slot 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 the form of a use case that proves the correctness of the proposed model.
Key Words: Internet of Things, NodeMCU WIFI module, IR sensors.
