ParkPal: a park sharing and crowdsource park monitoring mobile application

Published: 10 January 2019 Publication History

Abstract

Whenever a car owner drives to a destination, the first thing to consider is parking. Due to the lack of parking facilities, car owners are forced to park along the secondary or sometimes main roads to go about their business. With smart phones increasingly being integrated into our lives, it is not a new idea to utilize phones as a tool to help in solving societal problems such as the lack of available parking space in the metro. The project aims to solve this problem by developing a mobile application to create collaborative online community marketplace with sharing economy concept by bringing together two crowds: people who are looking for parking slots and business-minded persons who wants to make profit out of his/her unutilized parking lot/space. Alongside, ParkPal also offers the ability to monitor the density of public commercial spaces through the implicit collection of data contributed by ParkPal users generated from Activity Recognition API and Geofencing API.
