This document summarizes a study on allocating limited park resources in Baltimore City. It focuses on the issues of crowded facilities and poor enforcement at Patterson Park. The study uses GIS spatial analysis and a location-allocation model to determine where new playgrounds should be placed to best serve residential areas within a 15-minute walking distance. The results show 137 existing parks identified as candidates for new playgrounds, but many residential blocks still fall outside the 15-minute service areas. Therefore, additional solutions need to be considered to improve access to playground facilities.
Parking Demand & Supply Analysis of Different Commercial Land Uses Along Mirp...Shahadat Hossain Shakil
“Parking” this term is one of the most important topics of discussion in the developing cities. In the cities like Dhaka where unplanned urbanization prevails in a greater extent; parking problem is the most common scenario there. In the developing countries cities are growing without considering the inherent increasing parking demand. Mirpur road is one of the most problematic roads of Dhaka city in context of parking problem. To assess the current scenario of the problems and to formulate some policy measures is the main focus of this study. In this study some major parking generators along Mirpur has been surveyed and their parking demand-supply situation has been analyzed. Considering the Parking Policy for the Dhaka Metropolitan Development Plan Area, 2002 and the results from the analysis some policy measures has been formulated to manage the parking demand more efficiently.

Analysis of Different Parking Space and its Comparisonijsrd.com
In the "Analysis of different parking space and its comparison" we collected data from different parking space of our institute N.I.T Rourkela. Initially we figured out what is the variation of PCU with a certain time and then we compared all these data with the help of "t- test" to find out whether these parking pattern and demand are same or different. In another part we find out the "spatial and temporal distribution" of main road traffic vehicle, here "spatial distribution" is the variation of PCU (passenger car unit) with distance and in "temporal distribution" variation of PCU with time.

Optimally utilizing existing parking spots to meet the parking demand and supply gap in New York CityOverview
The research project will emphasize developing a technologically innovative parking management program for New York Department of Transportation (NYC-DOT), to address the overarching parking shortage challenges in New York City. The program will optimally utilize the existing private parking spaces and recommend NYC-DOT to develop web-based platform for New Yorkers to share private parking spaces.Background
Parking condition in New York City
· New York has 1.85 million on-street and off-street (public-owned garages) parking spaces for 8.4 million population. In general, New Yorkers cruise about 15, 30 or even 45 minutes to find a parking spot near their residence, office or shopping areas.

How

Allocate
the
Limited

of
Baltimore
City?
One
of
the
central
questions
of
urban

is
“How
to
allocate
the
limited
resource
to
the
right

This
study
tried
to
address
the
issues
that
from
the

Patterson
Park
is
one
of
the
biggest
parks
with
various
functions
in
the
Baltimore
City.
Study
of
Patterson

set
a
very
good
example
that
how
the
citizens
use
the
park
and
what
kinds
of
issues
occurs.
The
top
two
issues
that
the
park
users
most
concern
as
follows:
Facility
Issue:
The
park
facilities
is
crpwded
especially
those
for
daily
used.
Enforcement
Issue:
Poor
enforcement
of
the
park
rules.
The
target
of
the
study
is
trying
to
address
these
two
“bottom

issues
by
using
GIS
spatial
analysis.
The
two
topics
will

Table

indicates
the

by
daily
and

and
the
peak

hours
based
on
the
one-‐year
seasonal
surveys
of
Patterson
Park
and
various
in-‐depth
focus
group
interviews.
The
author
will
use
as
playground
as
an
example
for
the
reason
that:
1.
The
City
only
has
run
over
120
playgrounds
for
the
population
of
622,793
(2014
census
data).
Over
5,200
people
share
one
playground
and
still
lower
than
the
number
suggested
by
APA
Planning
Advisory
Service
Department.
2.Playground
is
the
most
heavily
used
facility
on
regular
basis.
Some
park
users
suggested
playground
is
“very
packed”
during
the
peak
hours.
It
is
usually
attract
the
children
and
students
from
the
area,
but
sometimes
also
attract
people
from
“driving
distance”.
It
will
lead
the
parking
issue
around
the
park.
3.
The
other
daily
use
facility
can
apply
the
same
method.
Therefore,
this
study
will
try
to
find
out
the
playground
allocation
within
the
walking
distance.
Data
and
Study
Area
The
study
area
is
Baltimore
City
and
used
the
“block”
as
the
analysis
unit
since
the
study
will
try
to
allocate
the
playground
within
walking
distance.
The
data
sources
include
OpenBaltimore
and
self-‐collect
data
from
Patterson
Park
study.
Methodology
and
Result
The
first
part
of
this
study
is
to
located
playgrounds
in
the
existing
parks.
The
author
applied
“Location-‐Allocation”
model
to
address
the
facility
issue.

The
first
step
is
to
set
up
demand
point
and
facility.
The
author
used
“residential
block”
as
demand
point.
Based
on
the
APA
guide,
the
standard
size
of
playground
is
5,000
sq.
ft.
and
should
leave
extra
space
for
open
space
and
other
facilities.
Thus
the
author
only
select
the
269
existing
park
that
larger
than
15,000sq
ft.
as
the
“potential
facility”.
(See
as
Figure
1)
The
self-‐collect
data
(see
table
1)
indicate
that
the
park
users
are
preferred
to
get
the
park
within
15
minuets
walking
distance
(0.7
mile)
thus
the
author
use
0.7
miles
as
impedance

that

are
out
off

so
cannot
access

Therefore,
the
second
part
of
the
facility

is
“Where
to

The

also

the

are
still

the
issues
such
as
“parking

“littering”,
“drug

“not

so

Besides
the
regular
police

another
important
authority
who
in
charge
of
park

is
park
ranger.
As
for
the
fact
that
the
city
has
very
limited
number
of
park
rangers,
it
is
important
to
reasonably
located
the
park
ranger

during

time.
Table

indicates
that
the

Discussion
In

was
trying
to
address
the
issues
from
the
need
of
users,
in
other

“from

The

tool

the
larger
level
but
have
many
limitations
on
the
issues
on
the
smaller
scale
for
the
reason
of
data
limitation.
The
data
on
the
smaller
scale
such
as
the
location
of
playgrounds
and
the
park
with
playgrounds
is
less
available.
Use
the
enforcement
issue
study
as
an
example,
the
program
that
list
all
afterschool
program
will
be
improve
the
analysis
remarkably.
What
is
more,
the
hotspot
analysis
only
can
take
one
variable
into
account
and
ignore
the
rest
important
variable
that
cannot
be
quantized.
However,
GIS
still
a
powerful
tool
to
address
the
question
that
“How
to
allocate
the
limited
resource
to
the
right
place?”
but
definitely
cannot
provide
the
ideal
answer.
As
for
the
reasons
listed
above,
to
address
the
issue
that
“from

to

the
lesson
from
this
study
is
“Ground

is
necessary.

is
essential”.
