Evaluation method of influence region of parking lot based on entropy method

In this paper, 24 parking lots in different areas of Beijing city were selected as the sample. First, a field survey was carried out for the basic information of parking lot and the land, transportation, economy and population of influence region, with seven evaluation indexes of land development intensity, traffic location potential, public transport accessibility, public transport service level, number of parking lots, house price and population density being selected, and their index value was calculated respectively according to the data of field survey. Second, the weight of each index was determined using the entropy method, and the evaluation model was established, and the division of influence region of parking lot based on development intensity was obtained, including three grades from small to large.

Parking Guidance and Authentication System

Whenever the number of parking lots became large the problems related to parking management became more complicated. The most two important problems that related to large parking places are: First, the long searching time for available lots, especially at the peak time. The second problem is the unauthorized-parking situations. Nowadays, there are parking guidance systems that guide the drivers toward the available lots. As a result, reduce the searching time for available lots, as well as reduce the congestion in that parking area. However, these systems do not solve the problem of unauthorized-parked vehicles. This study aims to combine along with guidance system, a mechanism to verify the legality of vehicles parked at authorized-parking lots. Therefore, this study will focus on two modules which are the detection module and the identification module. In the detection module, wireless sensors such as ultrasonic and y-axis magnetometers have proven their ability in detecting vehicles. And in the identification module, active RFID including both tag and reader are very suitable for this purpose. This project has significant implications for large institutions, by making the parking lots that allocated to their staff within the same customer parking area. In addition, it reduces the required manpower for managing that parking area.

Scheduling and performance analysis under a stochastic model for electric vehicle charging stations

Wide-spread infrastructures for electric vehicle battery charging stations are essential in order to significantly increase the implementation of electric vehicles (EVs) in the foreseeable future. Therefore, we propose a stochastic model and charge scheduling methods for an EV battery charging system. We utilize a flexible Poisson process with a hidden Markov chain for modeling the complexity of the time-varying behavior of the EV stream into the system. Relevant random factors and constraints, which include parking times, requested amounts of electricity, the number of parking lots (charging facilities), and maximal demand level, are considered within the proposed stochastic model. Performance measures for the proposed charge scheduling are analytically derived by obtaining stationary distributions of states concerning the number of inbound EVs, waiting time distributions, and the joint distributions of parking time and electricity charged during random parking times.

Dimensioning of a Bike Sharing System (BSS): A Study Case in Nezahualcoyotl, Mexico

The reported success in the implementation of sustainable transportation systems has generated great expectations at international level on the subject of urban planning. Particularly, Bike Sharing Systems (BSS) have been adapted successfully in places where it has identified a large proportion of short trips and characteristic geospatial conditions. This work is part of a project in Nezahualcoyotl in Mexico, where socioeconomic conditions in the area, the adherence of its society to this transportation mode as well as the urban trace and physical conditions favor the adoption of a BSS. This paper presents the methodology used to carry out the design and dimensioning of such system. The process involves: an optimal stations location modeling and a discrete simulation process for determining the ideal number of bicycles and the number of parking lots per station. This work focuses on the knowledge of the potential user preferences regarding their travel patterns and the computation of its utilization probability either replacing a motorized mode trip or as a link in a journey that involves transfers with more transportation modes.

The aim of this paper is to examine the effects of apartment complex characteristics on Housing value at Suseong-gu in Daegu. Three Multiple regression models based on Hedonic price model are employed as the empirical analysis on housing value with 948 data of the 30 apartment complexes in Daegu. The major findings are as follows; First, condominium complex variables are the most influential factor on housing value in the same level of housing market. the second is locational variables and the last is housing unit variables. Second, 'Area of exclusive use space' of the housing unit variables which include 'Number of layers', 'The direction of the unit', 'Number of room' and 'Corridor type' is the most heavyweight variable on housing value. Third, 'Number of housing unit' and 'Green and Lot area' of the condominium complex variables which cover 'Green area per person', 'Number of parking lots per person', 'Floor area ratio', 'Building-to-land ratio' and 'Heating system' are more important factors. The last, 'The distance of public transportation and Neighborhood park' are the most significant factors in the locational variables which contain 'Number of School and Neighborhood park within a given range' and 'The distance from City center and Big-box retailer'.

안전한 통학로 조성을 위한 보행자-차량간 교통사고와 학교 주변의 물리적 환경과의 연관성 연구

The purpose of this study is to explore environmental correlates of pedestrian-vehicle collisions within walkable distance from neighborhood schools in order to promote safe walking environment around schools. For this research, the total number of pedestrian-vehicle collisions occurred around each neighborhood school for 2000 through 2004 is measured as an indicator of the safety level of walking environment around schools. A negative binomial regression model is employed for spatial quantitative analysis. The result of spatial analysis indicates that sidewalk density, traffic signal density, cul-de-sac density, the number of fast-food restaurants, the number of parking lots, and the number of residential units are positively associated with pedestrian-vehicle collisions. However, it is found that the number of play grounds, the percentage of single-family housing areas, the percentage of mixed use areas, and average property value have negative association with pedestrian-vehicle collisions. These key findings of this research contribute to better understanding of the gaps in the current knowledge, for safe routes to school, regarding safe walking environment around neighborhood schools by providing new substantive knowledge regarding the significant effects of the physical environment on pedestrian-vehicle collisions.

국민주택규모 아파트 주거환경의 유니버설디자인 적용성 평가 연구 - 김해시 장유신도시 지역의 아파트 단지 사례를 중심으로 -

The quality of apartment houses has been gradually upgraded. However the changes in demographic composition of residents such as seniors, disabled persons, and etc. have not been considered in the process of planning. If apartment houses are designed on the base of the concept of universal design, their residents could live as long as they want to live in. This study evaluates the Korean standard-sized apartment housing units and the common spaces of those apartment buildings, and it's outdoor environments from the perspective of universal design. The observation and measuring was conducted with the questionnaire survey with 100 residents living in those housing units. 60 items were designed for evaluating them in relation to the principles of universal design. The results are as follows : 1) In general, the principles of universal design were relatively applied to the apartment houses. However their application needs to be broadened. 2) The number of parking lots needs to be increased and the width of individual parking lot to be increased. Also, the location of gazebo and senior center needs to be placed in easily accessible areas. 3) The shape, color, finishes of the ramp and the entrance area of the apartment building and housing unit should be made more homelike. Also, the entrance area of apartment building and housing unit needs to be made large enough for residents themselves and meeting with neighbors. 4) Among all of the rooms in a housing unit, bathroom should be improved immediately. Also, the width of doors should be at least 80cm wide and the floor should be made even.

New Strategies for the Reduction of Shopping Centers Generated Car Trips — Theory and Experiences

The relation between urban life and commerce has always been ambivalent. Technical norms and guidelines of the 1970s and 1980s provided an indication of the minimum number of parking places that need to be provided in connection with the construction of a new commercial center. Later on it became clear that it was not sufficient just to provide cars with a place to park, it was also necessary to provide them with adequate facilities to arrive and to leave. In recent years interesting programs to try and resolve the problems have been started in the city of Zurich. The innovative ‘‘trip model’’ moves the focus to the factors that are directly responsible for the disturbing emissions and binds building licenses to a certain number of emission generating car trips per year rather than to a determined number of parking lots.

Automatic Generation of Template Images for Detecting Vehicles in Parking Lots

An increase in the number of parking lots is very slow though that of cars increases much every year. Thus, efficient management of parking lots is needed. If information of vacant divisions is transmitted to cars waiting at gates of parking lots, traffic jam caused by cars searching parking divisions will be decreased. Therefore several methods for detecting parking cars have been developed. Especially, the method that detects cars hiding white lines drawn on parking lots is highly reliable. The method needs a template image for each camera. Since these images were created by human in the previous research, much cost and time was needed.In this paper, we present the method automatically generating the template images. Firstly, our method synthesizes an image of parking lots including no cars from several images. Then, the method detects white line segments from the image. The line segments are corrected in consideration of the rule that white lines on the parking lots are parallel and their length is constant. Finally, parking divisions are determined from the line segments and stored in the template image. In the experiment using the template generated by our method, accuracy of detecting cars was about 96%. The template is comparable to the manually created template in accuracy.

The Impact of WTE Facility on Housing Value

This study makes a contribution to ongoing compensation debates by providing empirical findings whether siting a WTE facility changes the housing value of a given community and what the important attributes are in determining the housing value. To answer these questions this paper examines a WTE facility siting case in Korea employing a Hedonic Pricing Method. The study found that the following variables impact the value of housing: distance to parks, distance to the WTE facility, the number of parking lots per apartment, and total number of floors in the apartment. With regard to the variable Distance to WTE Facility Site, only apartments located within 300m showed a statistically significant relationship. These results support the current government compensation policy that households located within 300m from a WTE facility are eligible to receive fringe benefits including reduction of heating cost, free of charge, and discounted welfare facilities.
