Smart Parking in Smart City

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: - In the evolving landscape of urbanization, smart cities aim to enhance the quality of life through the integration of advanced technologies. One critical challenge faced by urban environments is the inefficiency of traditional parking systems, which contribute to traffic congestion, increased fuel consumption, and environmental pollution. In this project a Smart Parking System designed to optimize parking space usage and reduce the time spent searching for available spots. Leveraging Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, real-time data analytics, and mobile applications, the system provides drivers with live updates on parking availability, automated reservations, and seamless payment solutions. The integration with city-wide traffic and infrastructure data allows for adaptive control and efficient resource allocation. The proposed system not only enhances urban mobility but also supports sustainability goals, making it a vital component in the development of smarter, more connected cities. Parking is important for mobility, access, and the economic development of cities. Evolving technology, new business opportunities, and a growing awareness are expanding the role of smart parking in sustainable city-scale mobility. The benefits from smart parking can get amplified many folds as part of a cohesive, collaborative ecosystem. In this article, we present our vision of Parking as a digital re-imagination of the end-to- end value parking chain as part of a collaborative eco-system. We discuss the key market drivers and barriers in smart parking; assess the current readiness levels; and outline a path to Parking while identifying opportunities and open research challenges.
