ParkEasy: An Embedded Model to Mitigate Car Parking Problems Using IoT Technology

Abstract

In the passage of time, the number of population in Dhaka city is increasing very rapidly. Most parts of this city are highly affected by the huge traffic jam. Peoples of all ages have to suffer and valuable times are being wasted for this longstanding hobble. The inadequate and inadvertent parking system is one of the main reasons for causing traffic congestion. Our prime aim is to develop a smart-phone based car parking model to minimize traffic jam and to ensure efficient car parking facilities in Dhaka city. To attain our aim we have designed and simulated a prototype of reservation based car parking system. Our developed smart-phone application will help the users to find the available parking spot in the nearest location. To maintain the parking details of different users a Java SE application has been developed.
