Question

How can we use sensors to map the streets to check which street has parking?

Answer 1

• Answer:-
• Now, we will try to learn About how we can use sensors to map the streets to check which street has parking.
• As the number of vehicles continues to grow, parking spaces are at a premium in city streets.
• Additionally, due to the lack of knowledge about street parking spaces, heuristic circling the blocks not only costs drivers' time and fuel, but also increases city congestion.
• In the wake of recent trend to build convenient, green and energy-efficient smart cities, we rethink common techniques adopted by high-profile smart parking systems, and present a user-engaged (crowdsourcing) and sonar-based prototype to identify urban on-street parking spaces. The prototype includes an ultrasonic sensor, a GPS receiver and associated Arduino micro-controllers.
• It is mounted on the passenger side of a car to measure the distance from the vehicle to the nearest roadside obstacle.
• Multiple road tests are conducted around Wheatley, Oxford to gather results and emulate the crowdsourcing approach.
• By extracting parked vehicles' features from the collected trace, a supervised learning algorithm is developed to estimate roadside parking occupancy and spot illegal parking vehicles.
• A quantity estimation model is derived to calculate the required number of sensing units to cover urban streets.
• The estimation is quantitatively compared to a fixed sensing solution.
• The results show that the crowdsourcing way would need substantially fewer sensors compared to the fixed sensing system.
