Abstract
Imbalance between parking supply and demand is reflected, among others, in long parking search time. For drivers, cruising for parking represents additional time and money spent (costs). In addition, cruising for parking increases traffic volumes and contributes to traffic congestions and air and noise pollution. In this chapter, we present the possibilities of using modern information technology to solve or mitigate this problem. More specifically, we present the parking guidance and information (PGI) system, which provides real-time information on vacant parking spaces and guides drivers thereto. We present a typical PGI system architecture, criteria for its introduction, and expected/realized impacts.
