How Much Can a Smart Parking System Save You?

Abstract: We conducted this study to investigate the effect of smart parking systems on parking search times in large parking lots. Smart parking systems are systems that provide real-time parking spot availability information to drivers. We used discrete event simulation to model a university parking lot and estimate how much time could be saved without physically implementing a system for experimentation. We found that smart parking systems can reduce search times by an average of 11 s. This shows potential f… Show more

“…To date, research on parking systems, a type of advanced driver assistance system (ADAS), spans varying degrees of parking assistance including attentional cueing [1], multimodal displays [2]- [5], parking spot identification [6], and fully autonomous parking [7]- [9]. Automated parking is a necessary partially automated safety feature for moving towards a high level of vehicle automation in the future (i.e., Level 4 or Level 5 automation).…”

“…The metrics used for evaluating the benefits of using a Smart Parking System include parking search time [5,30], mean driving distance [31], wandering ratio [5], walking time [32], and travel density and average speed [33]. Measurements (most often distance or time) usually start when a car enters the simulated area [31], when it is near to its destination or makes a request for parking [5], or when it arrives to a parking lot [30]. In our model, agents using the SPS are guided as soon as they enter the walled university campus, a city surrogate.…”

“…Various strategies to reduce car circling time or improve parking space availability have been evaluated. The arrivals of vehicles are generally simulated together with rules for finding a parking space, driving times and parking time (Harris and Dessouky, 1997;Surpris et al, 2014). A closely related area is that of curb-side parking for dropping off or picking up passengers, for example in connection to an airport.…”
