Multistoreyed Car Parking Monitoring System
CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This chapter outlines the background to the study, the statement of the problem, objectives and the justification of the research. .
1.1Background
Public utilities need a parking infrastructure that can function efficiently and be integrated with the other urban city utilities. Economic development sees parking as a tool to support current economic activity and as incentive to attract new businesses. Safety and security departments see parking and its prerequisite enforcement as, just that, a requirement, albeit it is a low priority requirement that can divert that department from its higher priority function. Many parking facilities in India are not effectively managed because of haphazard method of parking adopted by motorists that park according to convenience rather than utilizing bays systematically. This has caused jams at busy spots leaving other parking spaces free. This calls for a Parking Management System that can be used assign bays to the motorists in a systematic and consistent manner so as to avoid traffic jams at busy spots. The inability of motorists to identify parking bays at a specific facility in the shortest time possible would, significantly, contribute to fatigue in operating the vehicle. Moreover, some motorists that fail to find parking space tend to park vehicles illegally on shoulders or pavements which would likely result in unsafe conditions.
1.2 Objective
In this modern era, where space has become a very big problem and in the era of miniaturization, it is necessary to avoid the wastage of space in big companies, apartments etc. This scenario is tackled to a great extend by implementing a multistoried car parking system which will be a boon to metro cities and
