Editor's Notes
- #2 Practical to a fault and just a little bit off centeredWith this project, I decided to live the GSB dreamWhich effectively boils down to GO BIG or GO HOMESo I decided to take a crack at this
- #3 Look at this. Doesn’t itjust make you shudder?Everyone hates to park; but no one functions without itWe live in major cities/frequent crowded places/drive in high trafficked areasAnd very often parking is simply confusing, simply not available and frequently bothI mean can you tell whether or not you can park at most of these signs?Public good; government is slow to respond; but its ticketing agents are not (they bring the drama!)
- #5 Not a new ideaMobile Mashup of Multiple TechnologiesBuilt on top of Google Maps (API + Streetview)Built on top of Public Information (Garages, Signs, Gov data)Uses Target destination To recommend street parking To recommend garage parkingUses Tagged QR Network To crowdsource likely locations
- #6 Simplifies the process of choosing were to looking for parking to a color scheme-Green: > 4hours of parking- Yellow: 2-4 hours of parking-Orange: 0-2 hours of parking- Red: No parking-White: Garage Parking- Circular codes inside color nodes: M = metered; F=free;- Circular codes inside white nodes: $=<5p/h, $$=<15p/h, $$$=>15p/h
