Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of Internet of Things and mobile Internet application technology, and in particular to a parking smart positioning reservation management method and system. Background Art

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, the urban population continues to increase, and the number of private cars is also growing rapidly. However, in comparison, the planning and construction of urban parking spaces often lag behind, resulting in increasingly prominent contradictions between the supply and demand of parking resources. Especially in places with large flow of people such as commercial areas, hospitals, and schools, the contradiction between the supply and demand of parking spaces is particularly acute. This not only brings many inconveniences to residents' lives and work, but also aggravates the problem of urban traffic congestion. The data information between traditional parking lots or parking spaces cannot be interoperable, resulting in low management efficiency and inability to effectively respond to large-scale parking needs. Due to the lack of an intelligent scheduling system, the allocation of parking spaces is often not reasonable, some parking spaces are idle for a long time, while others are often full. Traditional parking lots generally use manual charging methods, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also prone to problems such as opaque charging and management loopholes. Car owners often need to spend a lot of time blindly driving into parking lots when looking for parking spaces, which increases traffic congestion and emission pollution. In order to solve the above problems, smart parking technology came into being. Summary of the invention

[0041] Figure 1 This is a parking intelligent positioning reservation management method described in the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0043] One embodiment of the present invention provides a parking smart positioning reservation management method, characterized in that the method comprises:

[0044] S1: After receiving the user's parking reservation application, the platform layer requests to obtain the user's location and transmits the user's location to the central management system;

[0045] S2: After the central management system obtains the user's location, it searches for parking lot location information around the user based on the user's location, and displays the parking lot location information to the user through the platform layer;

[0046] S3: After receiving the user's reservation request, the central management system transmits the reservation information to the target parking lot and records the license plate number of the reserved vehicle. After receiving the reservation information and vehicle information, the target parking lot confirms that the reserved parking space is vacant and locks the reserved parking space.

[0047] S4: After the target parking lot confirms that the vehicle is a reserved vehicle, it lifts the barrier to allow the vehicle to pass and guides the vehicle to the reserved parking space.

[0048] The working principle and effect of the above technical solution are as follows: the user initiates a parking reservation application to the platform layer through a smartphone application, a web page or other smart terminal. After receiving the user's reservation request, the platform layer immediately requests to obtain the user's current location information. After obtaining the user's location, the platform layer encrypts this information and securely transmits it to the central management system for subsequent processing. After receiving the user's location, the central management system uses geographic information system (GIS) technology or map service API to search the database for parking lot location information within a certain range around the user. According to factors such as the status of the parking lot (such as whether it is open, whether it is full, etc.), distance, price, user preference, etc., a list of suitable parking lots is screened out. The filtered parking lot location information, including name, address, number of remaining parking spaces, price, etc., is displayed to the user through the platform layer in a map, list or other visual form for the user to choose. The user selects a parking lot from the displayed parking lot list and submits a reservation request, including selecting a specific parking space or accepting a parking space automatically assigned by the system. The platform layer transmits the user's reservation request (including reservation time, license plate number, target parking lot and parking space information) to the central management system. The central management system forwards the reservation information to the management system of the target parking lot. The target parking lot verifies the status of the reserved parking space (ensuring that it is free), and locks the parking space after it is confirmed to be free to prevent other vehicles from occupying it. The central management system and the target parking lot both record the license plate number, reservation time, parking space number and other information of the reserved vehicle for subsequent verification and management. When the user drives the vehicle to the entrance of the target parking lot, the parking lot management system automatically scans the license plate number through license plate recognition technology. The scanned license plate number is compared with the record in the reservation system to confirm whether the vehicle is a reserved vehicle. Once the verification is passed, the gate at the entrance of the parking lot will automatically lift and release, and the system will guide the vehicle to the reserved parking space through the display screen. Through the reservation system, users can plan parking matters in advance, reduce the time spent looking for parking spaces in the parking lot, and thus improve parking efficiency. At the same time, the system can automatically guide vehicles to the reserved parking space, further shortening the parking time. The system can grasp the parking space usage in the parking lot in real time, and reasonably allocate parking space resources according to the user's reservation needs, avoid the phenomenon of vacant or overcrowded parking spaces, and optimize the resource allocation of the parking lot. Users can easily complete parking reservations through mobile APP, web pages and other channels, and view the location of the parking lot, remaining parking spaces and other information in real time, improving the convenience and transparency of parking. At the same time, the system provides intelligent services such as parking guidance and lifting barriers to enhance the user's parking experience.

[0049] In one embodiment of the present invention, after receiving a parking reservation application from a user, the platform layer requests to obtain the user's location and transmits the user's location to the central management system, including:

[0050] S11: The user initiates a parking reservation application through the platform layer. After receiving the application, the platform layer requests location permission from the user;

[0051] S12: After the user opens the permission, the platform layer uses the positioning function to obtain the user's location information, and transmits the user's location information to the central management system through the data transmission channel. The location information includes latitude, longitude and altitude.

[0052] The working principle and effect of the above technical solution are as follows: the user first needs to open the application (platform layer) of the parking reservation platform on a smartphone or other smart terminal. In the application, the user will see the entrance or option of parking reservation, and click to enter the reservation interface. In order to provide accurate parking lot recommendations and positioning services, the platform layer will initiate a request for location permissions to the user. This is usually a pop-up window or prompt box, informing the user that the application needs to access its location information and asking whether it is allowed. After the user sees the permission request, he needs to make a choice. If the user trusts the application and wants to get a better service experience, he will choose "Allow" or "Accept" to open the location permission. If the user does not want to share the location information, he can choose "Reject" or "Do not allow". Once the user authorizes the location permission, the platform layer will immediately start the positioning function of the device. After the positioning function runs successfully, it will return the user's location information, mainly including latitude and longitude coordinates and altitude. In order to protect user privacy and data security, the platform layer will encrypt the location information before transmitting it to the central management system. In this way, even if the data is intercepted during transmission, it cannot be easily interpreted by unauthorized third parties. The encrypted location information will be sent to the central management system through a secure data transmission channel. Users can easily complete parking reservations through terminal devices such as smartphones, without having to look for parking spaces on site, saving a lot of time and energy. The system can provide real-time information such as the location of the parking lot and the number of remaining parking spaces to help users make more informed parking choices. Through the reservation system, parking lots can allocate parking space resources more efficiently to avoid vacant or overcrowded parking spaces. The central management system can dynamically adjust the parking space allocation strategy based on real-time data and prediction models to cope with changes in parking demand in different time periods. The reservation system can automatically handle processes such as parking reservations, parking space allocation, and vehicle verification, reducing manual intervention and error rates.

[0053] In one embodiment of the present invention, after the central management system obtains the user's location, it searches for parking lot location information around the user according to the user's location, and displays the parking lot location information to the user through the platform layer, including:

[0054] S21: After the central management system obtains the user's location, it connects to the parking lot database, sets a search range with a radius of 3 kilometers according to the user's location, and searches the database for all parking lots within the range;

[0055] S22: Filtering is performed according to user needs, wherein the user needs include parking price, number of parking spaces, and distance, and finally the parking lot information that meets the conditions is displayed to the user through the application layer.

[0056] The working principle and effect of the above technical solution are as follows: the central management system first receives the user location information transmitted from the platform layer, and then the system is connected to a huge parking lot database, which stores the location, attributes, status and other detailed information of all parking lots in the city. In order to find the parking lot around the user, the system will set a search range with a radius of 3 kilometers according to the user's current location. Within the set search range, the system will query all eligible parking lot information in the database. The system will preliminarily screen the queried parking lot information according to the requirements (such as parking price, number of parking spaces, distance, etc.) put forward by the user when making an appointment. After the screening is completed, the system will sort the parking lot information that meets the conditions. In order to ensure that the parking lot information seen by the user is the latest, the system will also monitor the status changes of the parking lot in real time. Users can instantly obtain real-time information of surrounding parking lots without manual search or inquiry, which greatly improves the convenience of parking. The system can filter according to the needs and preferences of users, provide personalized parking lot recommendations, and meet the diverse parking needs of users.

[0057] In one embodiment of the present invention, after receiving a reservation request from a user, the central management system transmits the information of the reserved parking space to the target parking lot, and records the license plate number of the reserved vehicle. After receiving the reservation information and the vehicle information, the target parking lot confirms that the reserved parking space is in an idle state and then locks the reserved parking space, including:

[0058] S31: The central management system sends a query request to the target parking lot according to the time, location and other information requested by the user, and checks whether the target parking space is idle during the corresponding time period. If the target parking space is idle during the specified time period, the central management system sends a command to the target parking lot to lock the parking space and mark it as "reserved".

[0059] S32: The central management system records the detailed information of the reservation in the database, including the reservation time, reservation location, license plate number of the reserved vehicle, vehicle owner information, and reservation person information, and infers the reservation success information to the reservation person through the application layer.

[0060] The working principle and effect of the above technical solution are as follows: when the user submits a reservation request through the platform layer, the central management system first parses the time, location (i.e., target parking lot and target parking space) and other information in the request. Subsequently, the system sends a query request to the target parking lot, which is intended to check whether the status of the target parking space is idle during the specified time period. After receiving the query request, the target parking lot will query its internal system or database to confirm the status of the target parking space during the specified time period. This inspection process may include real-time query of sensor data in the parking lot, parking space occupancy, etc. If the target parking space is indeed idle during the specified time period, the target parking lot will send a confirmation message to the central management system. After receiving the confirmation, the central management system will send a locking instruction to the target parking lot, requesting that the target parking space be locked and marking the parking space as "reserved" in its system. This means that the parking space will no longer be open to other users during the reservation time period. After successfully locking the parking space, the central management system will record the reservation details in its database, including the reservation location (name and address of the target parking lot), the license plate number of the reserved vehicle, the owner information, and the reservation person information. After recording the reservation information, the central management system will send the reservation success information to the reservation person through the application layer. After the user submits the reservation request, the system can quickly process and feedback the reservation result, reducing the user's waiting time and improving the user experience. The system can recommend and reserve parking spaces according to the user's needs and preferences, provide more personalized services, and enhance user satisfaction. The system can automatically and efficiently match the user's reservation request with the vacant parking space to ensure the reasonable allocation and utilization of parking space resources. By reserving and locking parking spaces in advance, the system helps to reduce the vacancy rate of parking lots, improve the utilization rate of parking spaces, and optimize the allocation of parking resources.

[0061] In one embodiment of the present invention, after the target parking lot confirms that the vehicle is a reserved vehicle, the barrier is lifted to allow the vehicle to pass, and the vehicle is guided to the reserved parking space, including:

[0062] S41: When the reserved vehicle enters the parking lot entrance, the license plate recognition system automatically captures the vehicle's license plate number and compares the captured license plate number with the reserved license plate number in the central management system;

[0063] S42: When the license plate number matches the reservation information, the central management system sends a command to the gate control system, and the gate is automatically lifted to allow the reserved vehicle to enter the parking lot;

[0064] S43: When the reserved vehicle enters the parking lot, the road guidance device in the parking lot is activated to guide the reserved vehicle to the reserved parking space.

[0065] The working principle and effect of the above technical solution are as follows: when the reserved vehicle enters the entrance of the parking lot, the license plate recognition system installed at the entrance will automatically start and use a high-definition camera to capture the front image of the vehicle. The license plate recognition system uses the built-in image processing algorithm and license plate recognition algorithm to pre-process, extract features and recognize characters on the captured image, so as to accurately extract the license plate number. The extracted license plate number will be sent to the central management system immediately and compared with the reserved license plate number recorded in the system. If the license plate number matches the reservation information, it is confirmed to be a reserved vehicle, and the central management system will immediately send an instruction to the gate control system. After receiving the instruction, the gate control system will control the gate to automatically lift up, allowing the reserved vehicle to enter the parking lot without obstacles. When the reserved vehicle successfully enters the parking lot, the road guidance device in the parking lot will automatically start. According to the destination of the reserved vehicle (i.e. the reserved parking space), the guidance device will plan the optimal driving path and show it to the driver through a display screen or an indicator arrow. During the driving process of the vehicle, if there is traffic congestion or other emergencies, the guidance device will also update the path planning in real time according to the actual situation to ensure that the vehicle can smoothly reach the reserved parking space. Through the license plate recognition system and automated gate control, reserved vehicles can quickly pass through the parking lot entrance, reducing waiting time and improving traffic efficiency. The road guidance device can provide the best driving path for reserved vehicles in real time, helping drivers quickly find reserved parking spaces and avoiding the trouble of blindly searching for parking spaces in the parking lot.

[0066] One embodiment of the present invention is a parking intelligent positioning reservation management system, characterized in that the system includes:

[0082] Data storage and push system: The central management system records detailed information of the appointment in the database, including appointment time, appointment location, license plate number of the reserved vehicle, vehicle owner information, and appointment person information, and infers the successful appointment information to the appointment person through the application layer.

[0083] The reservation system sets priorities based on different conditions for each user. The higher the priority, the easier it is for the user to reserve a parking space. The priority judgment criteria are based on the user's reservation time, estimated arrival time, parking history record, and user level. The priority calculation formula can be obtained by the following formula:

[0084] P=O×ω 1 +I×ω 2 +Q×ω 3 +W×ω 4

[0085] Among them, P represents the priority level, O represents the appointment time score, I represents the estimated arrival time score, Q represents the history score, W represents the user level score, ω 1 represents the weight of the appointment time score in the priority level, ω 1=0.4,ω 2 represents the weight of the estimated arrival time score in the priority level, ω 2 =0.2,ω 3 Indicates the weight of the historical record score in the priority level, ω 3 =0.3,ω 4 Indicates the weight of the user's grade score in the priority level, ω 4 =0.1, and the reservation score can be obtained by the following formula:

[0086]

[0087] Among them, K 1 represents the basic score of the appointment time score, that is, the score obtained when the user makes an appointment just within the maximum allowed advance time, K 1 =60, t represents the length of time the user makes an appointment in advance, t 0 represents the maximum allowed advance reservation time length, μ represents the decay factor, which is used to control the speed at which the score increases with the increase of reservation time, and the value range is (0,1];

[0088] Furthermore, the estimated arrival time score I can be obtained by the following formula:

[0089]

[0090] Where I represents the estimated arrival time score, K 2 The base score of the estimated arrival time score, which represents the maximum score that the user should get if he arrives on time or very close to it. 2 =60, |ΔT| represents the absolute difference between the user's estimated arrival time and the current time, T represents the maximum allowed time difference, T is a threshold set by the parking lot, indicating how much later the user's estimated arrival time can be than the current time and still get a high score, ε represents the correction factor, ε=1, the role of ε is to avoid the situation where the denominator in the above formula is equal to 0;

[0091] Furthermore, the historical record score Q can be obtained by the following formula:

[0092]

[0093] Among them, Q represents the historical record score, K 3 represents the base score of the historical record score, K 3 =60, n represents the total number of historical parking records of the user, H i represents the score of the user's i-th on-time arrival, and the user gets +2 points each time he arrives on time. irepresents the score of the user's i-th illegal parking, and the user gets -1 point for each illegal parking. i It indicates the score of the user exceeding the parking lot time limit for the i-th time, and the user will get -2 points for every 30 minutes the user exceeds the parking lot time limit;

[0094] Further, the user level score represents the score obtained according to different levels of the user, the user level is determined based on the user's consumption level, and is divided into three user levels according to the user's consumption level, namely, primary user, intermediate user and advanced user, wherein the primary user's score is 60 points, the intermediate user's score is 80 points, and the advanced user's score is 100 points;

[0095] The reservation system determines the priority level according to the user's reservation time, estimated arrival time, parking history record and user level.

[0096] When 60<P≤80, it means that the user is at a low priority level and the probability of successfully reserving a parking lot is relatively small;

[0097] When 80<P≤90, it means that the user is at a medium priority level, and the probability of successfully reserving a parking lot is relatively high;

[0098] When 90<90≤100, it means that the user is at a high priority level and the probability of successfully reserving a parking lot is very high.

[0099] The working principle and effect of the above technical solution are as follows: when a user submits a reservation request, the system will record the specific time of the reservation. The system maintains the user's parking history, including whether the user arrives on time, whether the parking is illegal, the parking duration and other information. Based on factors such as the user's activity, credit rating, and consumption record, the system assigns a level to the user. The higher the level, the better the user's reputation. Users with early reservations may enjoy higher priority in parking space allocation, especially when parking resources are tight. The difference between the estimated arrival time and the current time will also be considered, and users who arrive on time or in advance may get higher priority. The system will continuously update the parking space allocation based on real-time data (such as parking space availability, user arrival, etc.). In the case of vacant parking spaces, the system will give priority to allocating parking spaces to users with high priority levels. Once the parking space allocation is successful or changes occur (such as user cancellation of reservation, parking space occupied, etc.), the system will promptly notify the user. By comprehensively considering multiple factors, the system can more accurately predict the demand and use of parking spaces, thereby optimizing the allocation of parking spaces and reducing vacancy rates. The priority system can encourage users to arrive on time, reduce traffic congestion and unnecessary waiting time caused by waiting for parking spaces. Users can plan parking matters in advance through the reservation system to avoid the trouble of finding parking spaces on site. The reservation system can realize the automated management of parking space allocation, reduce manual intervention and reduce management costs. By comprehensively considering multiple factors to derive priority levels, the system can allocate parking space resources more fairly and reduce unfairness caused by human factors. The user rating system can be regarded as a membership system. By upgrading the level, more discounts and privileges can be obtained, thereby enhancing the user's sense of belonging and stickiness.

[0100] In one embodiment of the present invention, the autonomous parking system comprises:

[0101] License plate recognition system: When a reserved vehicle enters the parking lot entrance, the license plate recognition system automatically captures the vehicle's license plate number and compares the captured license plate number with the reserved license plate number in the central management system;

[0102] Gate control system: When the license plate number matches the reservation information, the central management system sends a command to the gate control system, and the gate is automatically lifted to allow the reserved vehicle to enter the parking lot;

[0103] Guidance device: When the reserved vehicle enters the parking lot, the road guidance device in the parking lot is activated and guides the reserved vehicle to the reserved parking space.

[0104] The working principle and effect of the above technical solution are as follows: when the reserved vehicle enters the entrance of the parking lot, the license plate recognition system installed at the entrance will automatically start and use a high-definition camera to capture the front image of the vehicle. The license plate recognition system uses the built-in image processing algorithm and license plate recognition algorithm to pre-process, extract features and recognize characters on the captured image, so as to accurately extract the license plate number. The extracted license plate number will be sent to the central management system immediately and compared with the reserved license plate number recorded in the system. If the license plate number matches the reservation information, it is confirmed to be a reserved vehicle, and the central management system will immediately send an instruction to the gate control system. After receiving the instruction, the gate control system will control the gate to automatically lift up, allowing the reserved vehicle to enter the parking lot without obstacles. When the reserved vehicle successfully enters the parking lot, the road guidance device in the parking lot will automatically start. According to the destination of the reserved vehicle (i.e. the reserved parking space), the guidance device will plan the optimal driving path and show it to the driver through a display screen or an indicator arrow. During the driving process of the vehicle, if there is traffic congestion or other emergencies, the guidance device will also update the path planning in real time according to the actual situation to ensure that the vehicle can smoothly reach the reserved parking space. Through the license plate recognition system and automated gate control, reserved vehicles can quickly pass through the parking lot entrance, reducing waiting time and improving traffic efficiency. The road guidance device can provide the best driving path for reserved vehicles in real time, helping drivers quickly find reserved parking spaces and avoiding the trouble of blindly searching for parking spaces in the parking lot.

[0105] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
