Summary & Reader's Response : Draft 3

In the article “IoT based Smart Parking Systems for Smart Cities”, hIOTron(n.d.), claims that effective management of parking space will prevent traffic congestion. Smart parking utilizes sensors installed on lots to detect lot availability. Occupants can book the lot in advance while receiving real time accessibility and when the sensors confirm a vacant lot, the car will be parked automatically. For an IoT solution, it must make it easy to transfer field data to the cloud at low cost and increased ROI which is a challenge because there might be real upfront costs as in-ground sensors can incur additional cost for two parking systems. Smart parking authentication is done using an RFID tag and data collected is reserved in the cloud. The app would find a vacant lot and send the location to the user after registration is completed. Optimal parking is achieved with minimal time and effort while enhancing the user’s experience.  A smart parking system helps to reduce carbon emission a...
