Title: Smart Parking Application
Introduction:
1) The Scope of the Project
Real time parking availability of parking areas.
2) The Problem Statement
Exponential rise in number of vehicles on road which leads to poor traffic
management and congestion.
3) The Hypothesis
Individual sensor present on parking will detect and update the app whenever
there is movement of cars in parking lot.
4) The Objectives
• Save Time
• Reduce Traffic congestion
• Stop Idling and emissions
• Make parking areas more efficient
Methodology:
1. We asked people in local malls and parking areas about problem they face
while searching for the parking spot.
2. Analysed the problems faced by people and thought we can reduce the time
and congestion parking area with a smart parking application which shows
real-time availability of parking in parking lots.
3. We did basic designing of app was done with help of AI based software. Few
of the features were added using android development tool.
4. We surveyed places with underground parking space and people about the
idea and app design. They thought it could be great in Metro-Politian cities.
Observations:
Many people in local malls that we surveyed were late for any event or shopping due
to searching of parking space. Some gave great view on the idea while some were
neutral but overall, everyone was interested to see the app working. People thought
it was a good app to modernise the parking management system in India.

Q1. Q2. Q3. Q4.
POSITIVE NEGATIVE
Above graph shows the feedback about the app and idea. We went to parking lots
and saw confusion and frustration in drivers to get parking space. We saw despite
available parking in inside the area people were not aware of so they parked them
on road which can lead to many problems on road.
Conclusion/Inference:
1) The Principle and Generations inferred from the Results
We will utilize sensors, data analytics and communication systems to provide
real-time information of availability parking space.
2) Any Exceptions, Problem or Limitation of the Project
The cloud or server which will update the app will require a regular
maintenance. In some area it is difficult to stop street parking with the app.
3) Theoretical and Practical Implications of the Project
• Real-time Parking Information
• Increase in Traffic flow
• Efficient Parking space Utilization
• Time reduction and optimization
• Reduce carbon emissions from Idle Engines
These are some Implication of the Project. This app will help modernise the
public parking areas.
