The parking information system informs users of available parking spaces through various methods. Sensors detect empty spaces and send this data to variable signs or a traffic control center. This information is then communicated to potential users through signs, navigation systems, the internet or SMS to help drivers find empty spaces faster and reduce time spent searching. The system aims to improve parking efficiency as the number of vehicles has increased tremendously. It provides benefits like easier parking data processing and less burden on staff to manually check space availability.

3. The parking information system is a
system that informs the availability of
empty parking spaces and parking
automation that is usually applied in the
downtown area. Sometimes it is identical
with the automation of payment and
admission.
4. How it Works
The information about the empty parking space is obtained
from the vacant parking space detector owned by each Parking
Building which then this information is sent to the variable
beacon or traffic control center. The detector can be a vehicle
presence detector in the form of an induction loop, ultra sonic
or infrared or more advanced by using a video camera. Then the
image obtained is processed to get information whether the
parking space is empty or the contents. Subsequent data is
communicated to potential users of the parking space.
11. a shopping center or a mall or market location
located in downtown Plaza which sometimes
has 13 floors every day can not be separated
from the visitors who ranged above 1000 visitors
/ per day.
12. By looking at the average visitor each day, then
the management usually provides 2 parking lots,
each divided into 1 car park and 1 parking area
for motorcycles that are usually very wide in
order to meet the needs of visitors.
13. With a computerized system, the process of
parking a little easier and effective in data
processing parking. Good vehicle data visitors,
security and many other advantages of his with
this parking automation through parking
information systems such as parking area
number and the status of parking space or has
not been filled so the security guard or officer is
not overwhelmed at all times to check the
available parking quotas
14. So this parking information system was created
to create these conveniences so that the
creation of the efficiency and effectiveness of
parking is much needed nowadays. In the midst
of modern times shopping centers and vehicles
already exist thousands or perhaps millions in
every city.
16. In its development
Content parking status information submitted to the traffic
user community with variable beacon or through modern
vehicle navigation system.
In the modern navigation system of the vehicle can even
be informed the location of the vacant parking space. With
this information system can reduce the lost time to find
empty parking spaces.
17. Information through variable beacons
Signs of vacant parking facilities used are variable signs
that make it easy for road users to find empty parking
spaces so it can save time to look around for available
parking spaces for road users. This sign is also used in the
parking lot to inform the amount of vacant parking spaces
on certain floors.
18. Vehicle navigation system
All information about the use of parking space in parking
buildings that provide parking services to the public go to the
traffic control center, which then the information is
communicated to the vehicle that is running and then can be
reserved to a particular user after the user communicate the
meaning through device in the vehicle. Its effectiveness [3] is
dependent on several things including the accuracy of data
coming into the traffic control center, traffic conditions.
19. Information parking via internet and
sms
The development of communication
through the internet and sms has been
so advanced to provide information of
the existence of parking space to the
user in the destination so that now in
some countries such as Japan, North
America and Germany can be obtained
information availability of vacant
parking space.
