“…However, the analysis discarded emission and safety impacts. The assessment of factors impacting travel mode on campus parking areas has been attracted attention, as evidenced by several published work (Bridgelall, 2014;Elliott, Jayachandran, Kumar, & Metzer, 2013;Fries, Chowdhury, & Dunning, 2012;Guo, Huang, & Sadek, 2013;Jung, Ha, & Park, 2017;Moradkhany, Yi, Shatnawi, & Xu, 2015;Proulx, Cavagnolo, & Torres-Montoya, 2014). Fries et al (2012) used a dynamic traffic assignment on a campus parking area, but the research was centered on vehicle delay.…”

This research explored the integrated effect that several mobility scenarios had on traffic performance, conflicts, global and local pollutants, and emission-related costs on a University Campus. An emphasis was given to the campus parking areas. One of the main contributions of this study was the identification of hotspot in terms of emissions, costs and traffic conflict locations. A well-calibrated and validated modeling platform of traffic, emissions and safety was used to examine different traffic scenarios in the University of Aveiro, Portugal. These included the replacement of traffic lights by roundabouts, direct access to campus and some parking areas, increasing campus walkability and introduction of speed humps on main crosswalks. The analysis was performed both link-by-link and in the overall study area. Mobility scenarios with a new direct access to the campus yielded average reductions up to 9% in both costs and local pollutants (carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons), and 36% and 32% for the number of stops and traffic conflicts, respectively. Nonetheless, additional traffic conflicts can be expected within campus after the implementation of those scenarios compared to the existing situation.

So me intelligent parking design and transport management system has been proposed in [11][12][13]. In th is paper, we focused on the car's LPR technique to operate an automated secure garage system.…”

Modern technologies have reached our garage to secure the cars and entrance to the residences for the demand o f h igh security and automated infrastructure. The concept of intelligent secure garage systems in modern transport management system is a remarkable example of the co mputer interfaced controlling devices. License Plate Recognition (LPR) process is one of the key elements of modern intelligent garage security setups. This paper presents a design of an automated secure garage system featuring LPR process. A study of templates matching approach by using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is implemented to carry out the LPR method. We also developed a prototype design of the secured garage system to verify the application for local use. The system allo ws only a predefined enlisted cars or vehicles to enter the garage while blocking the others along with a central-alarm feature. Moreover, the system maintains an update database of the cars that has left and entered into the garage within a part icular duration. The vehicle is d istinguished by the system mainly based on their registration number in the license plates. The tactics are tried on several samples of license plate's image in both indoor and outdoor setting.

“…In the world of IoT applications parking systems also have a considerable market share due to growing population, vehicles and traffic. George Mason University in Fairfax, VA, faced a parking deficit due to growth forecasts and to address this, a system was designed [17] to identify commuter populations, predict ridership, and analyze utility of shuttle routes or garages as the goal is to reduce traffic congestion and emissions, ultimately ensuring sustainable growth. Similarly an image-based system for detecting vacant spaces in parking areas, combining edge density, closed contour density, and foreground/background pixel ratio for robust detection at low computational cost was proposed [18].…”

The Blockchain-IoT integration is treated as the future technological value by many adopters despite the cost or complexity involved. But, there are technological advancements brought in by communities that make solutions affordable and simple to the fact that they can be used in applications such as parking space counters. This research portrays use of XNO which is a digital currency in an alternative way to keep track of available parking spaces via IoT nodes installed at entry and exit points of parking lots. The available parking spaces data using this approach can be displayed on LED boards at the entry point of the parking lots and on a website for remote status view. An add-on for this research is the issue of entry tickets with timestamp and unique ID by using the block data during asset transfer. This research can be further enhanced for collection of parking fees by the help of IoT nodes at the exit points of the parking lots.
