Eco Park: A Low-Cost and Sustainable Approach for Smart Parking Systems

The challenges and opportunities related with the management and optimisation of parking lots in urban areas are addressed in this research paper. Parking lots have grown increasingly obsolete, necessitating tremendous personnel to manage and maintain. These lots frequently lack user-friendly features, such as real-time availability information, resulting in motorist irritation and wasted time. Furthermore, the increasing size of luxury vehicles and the scarcity of parking places in metropolitan areas complicate parking management. To address these concerns, we provide a ground-breaking solution based on the Internet of Things (IoT). To deliver real-time parking availability data, reduce congestion, and improve the entire parking experience for users, our suggested system design combines sensors, gateways, a cloud-based platform, and a mobile application. Our research emphasises the importance of IoT in changing traditional parking systems into intelligent and efficient solutions. We provide a thorough explanation of the system design and its components, backed up by a comparative analysis that demonstrates the efficacy of our method in contrast to existing systems.. By leveraging IoT technologies, our research contributes to the evolution of parking management solutions. Our insights will be useful to policymakers, urban planners, and parking facility operators in establishing sustainable, cost-effective, and user-centric parking solutions. Urban regions can improve their overall quality of life by implementing our results and providing efficient and easy parking experiences.
