Abstract: The increasing number of vehicles on the road along with the mismanagement of available parking space leads to problems related to the parking as well as increased congestion in urban areas. It is thus highly necessary to develop an integrated smart parking management system that would allow the driver to figure out very quickly some suitable parking space for his orher vehicle. Although there is ample research on the development of smart parking system in the literature, most of them have not addressed the problem of real-time detection of unsuitable parking and automatic collection of parking fees. The Smart Parking System introduces an IOT-based smart parking system that provides an optimal solution to the problem of parking in metropolitan cities. Due to the rapid rise in vehicle density, it is difficult for users to find the parking space to park their vehicles, particularly during the peak hours of the day. The proposed smart parking system consists of a slot module deployed on-site to track and signal the availability status of each individual parking space. There is also a mobile application which allows the end user to test the availability of parking spaces and to book a parking space accordingly. Smart parking can increase the economy by reducing fuelconsumption and pollution in urban cities.
