| Summary: | 碩士 === 長榮大學 === 經營管理研究所 === 95 === This study aims to solve general curbside parking problems, including how to improve the efficiency of finding an available parking space of a car driver and the fairness of parking charge. In order to achieve these goals, we conducted comprehensive paper searching and analyzing, investigated the currently parking-fee collecting system, actually participated a parking field fee-collector operation, and from a car driver stand point of view, studied the psychology state of how a car driver searching for an available parking space.
After understanding present curbside-parking situation comprehensively, we not only propose a solution, but also build-up a prototype system. This real-time-monitoring system proved could solve some of current-existing parking problems.
The real-time-monitoring system is including an infrared detection system, a radio-frequency data transmission system, and an analog-digital converter. After the parking spaces status information collected into computers, a Visual Basic program was written to integrate all of information, such as which space was occupied, when, for how long, …etc., and to present it onto the Internet.
The values of this system are tracking parking spaces occupied time to seconds, presenting all the parking spaces status on the Internet for all of car drivers anywhere and anytime, easing a car driver finding an available parking space. It can also improve the safety and efficiency of traffic. Moreover, it can enable the parking field fee-collector work more efficiently. In other word, it will save more tax-payer money and make collecting parking fee fairly and effectively.
Surfing the Internet is already acceptable in Taiwan. As the 3G mobile phone gradually popularizing, the number of people using cellular mobile phone to surf the Internet will increase dramatically. Therefore, in the foreseen coming years, this system information could be browsed by the 3G mobile phone, providing necessary information for all of the parking space users. If a system like this could be adopted, the effects of current curbside parking fee collecting system can be improved, such as better managing human resources, manpower usage, fairness, traffic flow,…,etc.
