Starting Final Project -
Smart Parking :
0.1 Introduction:
Purpose:
The
purpose of this document is to present a detailed explanation of Smart Parking
Detection. This will describe us purpose
and features of the system, the interface of the system, what the system will
do, the constraints under which it must operate and how the system will react
to external stimuli. This document is intended for both the stakeholders and
developers of system.
1.0 Purpose &
Requirements Specification
1.1 Purpose of
Project:
“
Decade of the Urbanization “ – World’s growing love affair with cities shows
robust growth of urban population which is at rate of 1.8% per every year in
this decade. With estimation of 70% of world’s population live in
cities by 2050, managing urban areas has become one of the most important
development challenges of the 21st century. As a result, countries will face numerous challenges
in meeting the needs of their growing urban populations, including for
transportation, infrastructure, housing, energy and employment, as well as for
basic services such as education and health care. One of such problem is
traffic congestion and parking in cities. According to a survey about 30% of
traffic congestion in cities during peak times is because of drivers searching
parking areas. To address this problem this project proposes a well planned parking system that would save
time, fuel and helps us to reshape our
cities and put them in path of “Smart Cities”. This smart parking system allows
us to check the parking availability remotely using a web application.
1.2 Behavior :
Smart
parking Detector is mobile application which helps people to locate available
parking spots in the location that user planning to travel and can reserve a
parking spot. This parking system can be installed in all parking demand places
in the city such as Shopping malls, Airports, hotels etc. User needs to install this application on his
mobile by downloading it. User
can get availability of parking or propose next parking available time.
1.3 System
Management Requirement:
This
system provides remote monitoring and
control function. Administrator will be appointed based of the size of
institution, who monitors sensors, payment issues, timing issues (towing
vehicle in case of delay in moving out). He also monitors the accuracy of
system and update information accordingly.
1.4 Data Analysis
Requirement:
System will
maintain a repository to provide information to support decision making in determining
pricing and planning. System will also calculate the time of next available
parking slot and should report it to user.
1.5 Application
Deployment Requirement:
Smart
parking detectors can be installed in any place in 10 minutes. To install Smart
Parking System in any institution will happen in incremental manner instead of
blocking all the parking and installing(depends on the size of institution) which
may take few hours of shutdown of that particular block. Internet connection is mandatory for these
devices which can be provided with Wifi or Ethernet. These devices fetches and
update the information from/in to a database, which is located on a web-server.
User should be connected with internet to get the updates on available parking
slots.
2.0 Process
Specification:
2.1 USE case diagrams:
2.2 Sensor level
diagram :
Sensor
keeps on checking for a vehicle presence in the parking slot( uses distance
sensor) . If it finds any change in its
state it will update those details in Database. If parking slot is empty it
will update the total availability count adding one to it. When parking slot at
particular sensor is occupied, it will update the availability count by
subtracting one from it. When parking is full, it will check expire
time-stamp(estimated time to vacate) in
database and determines availability of next parking slot send those details to
user.
If
distance calculated by sensor is more than 50 cm, parking is available, if its
less than that parking slot is occupied.

Information Model Specification:
5.0 Service
Specification Model
6.0 IOT level
Specification Model
Smart parking belongs to IOT Level-1 specification because it uses a single level node/sensor for collecting data and store it in local database. It also uses local analysis , Rest services.
