| Abstract |
On-street parking is an essential component of parking infrastructure for smart cities, which allows users to park near their destinations for short term. However, due to limited capacity, saturated on-street parking becomes a serious and widespread problem for urban transportation systems. Greedily searching for an on-street parking spot in a saturated area is often a frustrating task for drivers, and cruising for vacant parking spots results in additional delays and impaired local circulation. With the recent development of networked smart parking meter, real-time city-wide on-street parking information becomes available for more efficient parking management. In this paper, we design an online parking guidance system that recommends parking spots in real-time based on the parking availability prediction. With a receding horizon optimization framework, our solution minimizes the user's driving and walking cost by adapting the spatiotemporally dynamic supply and demand in the local area, significantly reducing parking competitions in a timely manner. We implement and evaluate our solution with a dataset of 13,503,655 parking records collected from 5228 in-ground sensors distributed in the Australian city Melbourne. The evaluation results show that our approach achieves up to 63.8% delay reduction compared with existing solutions. |
