ABSTRACT
In this fast-growing cities, the vehicle users increases exponentially and demanding more
parking space. In present smart phone encourages users to prefer mobile application to get solve
their problems. Growth of IOT has put a path for integration of mobile devices, wireless
communication technologies and mobile Applications. It provides a parking solution for both
the user and owner of the parking slots. Features are provided for reserving a parking slots,
authenticating a reserved user, identifying nearest parking slots depending on the size of the
vehicle, navigating to the parking slots and computes accounts information on day, week and
month basis. IR sensors are used to identify if there is a parking spot is free. Availability of a
free parking slot with its location information and petrol bunks, Shopping malls is transmitted
using GPS module technology, microcontroller and wireless communication technology to the
server and is retrieved though a mobile application.
INTRODUCTION
A smart traffic management system is, where traffic is constrained by the administration
framework, which controls the traffic lights as per the continuous circumstance of traffic
moving from every extraordinary bearing in an intersection. This continuous information is
gathered from different sensors set at equivalent interims of separation at an intersection. This
information is gathered and brought to a control framework which independently ascertains the
ideal time for the arrival of the green sign to every specific heading in an intersection so as to
counteract traffic heaping upThe future roads will be able to manage traffic congestion much
better than today's networks.It has been imagined thatin a span of around 20 to 30 years the
existing traffic system would improve to an extent where cars can communicate with each other
without any human interaction to control the traffic. Hence travel could be made smoother and
safer.Sensors would be fitted in cars and these cars will be placed on the roads. These would
monitor traffic and send the information wirelessly to a "central traffic control system," a hub
that compiles data to feed back the information to vehicles on the road. For instance if there's
lots of traffic, the central traffic control system would be told over WiFi and they in turn react
by imposing speed limits that have to be followed by the vehicles in that congestion area. Since
millions of money is spent on traffic congestion every year, it has been estimated that, by the
implementation of smart transportation systems, the money spent will get reduced by at least
15% Smart city uses the information, communication and technologies to improve the
operational efficiency for the public, helps in accelerating towards the improvement quality of
life for citizens. Internet of Things (IOT), Automation, and Machine Learning are the emerging
trends which drive towards smart city adoption. Any city can be considered for smart city
initiative, by introducing system like, smart parking system uses a mobile app to help the
drivers to locate parking slots, smart traffic management to track and analyze the traffic
flows,Main purpose of smart parking system is to reduce time to locate the parking areas, hence
to it reduces fuel consumption. Sensors would be deployed in the parking area and through the
mobile app, user books for the parking slot and allows online payment option as well.
Introduction to IOT
IOT stands for “Internet of Things”. It refers to the network of physical devices , vehicles ,
home appliances ,and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors and
connectivity, which allows them to connect and exchange data over the internet.

Working of IOT
IoT works through a combination of hardware and software components. At a high level, the
IoT system typically consists of the following components :
IoT devices or sensors: These are physical devices or sensors that collect data and send
it to the cloud or a local gateway. Examples of IoT devices include smart thermostats,
smart watches, fitness trackers, and home security systems.
Connectivity: IoT devices need to be connected to the internet or a local network to
send and receive data. Connectivity can be through Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular, or other
wireless or wired protocols.
Cloud or local gateway: IoT devices typically send data to a cloud-based server or a
local gateway device that acts as an intermediary between the devices and the cloud.
The cloud or gateway can process the data, perform analytics, and send commands back
to the devices.
Data storage and processing: IoT generates large amounts of data, which needs to be
stored and processed. The cloud or local gateway typically provides storage and
processing capabilities.
Applications: The data generated by IoT devices can be used to develop various
applications that can improve processes, efficiency, and decision-making.

IoT has numerous applications in civil engineering, and some of the areas where IoT
has already been implemented include:
Structural health monitoring: IoT sensors can be used to monitor the structural health
of buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure. Sensors can measure parameters such as
strain, temperature, and vibration, and send the data to a central system for analysis.
This can help detect potential issues before they become major problems, reducing
maintenance costs and improving safety.
Traffic management: IoT sensors can be used to monitor traffic flow, collect data on
travel times, and detect accidents. This data can be used to optimize traffic signals and
improve road safety.
Energy efficiency: IoT sensors can be used to monitor energy consumption in buildings
and other infrastructure. This can help identify areas where energy is being wasted and
optimize energy usage, resulting in cost savings and reduced carbon emissions.
Water management: IoT sensors can be used to monitor water quality and detect leaks
in pipelines. This can help prevent water loss and improve the efficiency of water
distribution systems.
Environmental monitoring: IoT sensors can be used to monitor environmental
parameters such as air quality, noise levels, and weather conditions. This data can be
used to improve urban planning and enhance public health and safety.
Countries that have implemented traffic management and parking syatem using IoT:
1.United States: Many cities in the US have implemented smart parking systems, including San
Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York. Traffic management systems are also used in many
cities to monitor and manage traffic flow.
2.United Kingdom: The UK has implemented smart parking systems in several cities, including
London, Manchester, and Brighton. Traffic management systems are also used in many cities
to manage traffic flow and reduce congestion.
3.Germany: Smart parking systems are used in many cities in Germany, including Berlin,
Munich, and Hamburg. Traffic management systems are also used to monitor and manage
traffic flow.
4.Singapore: Singapore has implemented a sophisticated traffic management system that
includes a network of cameras and sensors to monitor traffic flow and manage congestion.
5.China: Smart parking systems are widely used in China, particularly in large cities like
Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. Traffic management systems are also used to monitor
traffic flow and reduce congestion.
6.Australia: Smart parking systems are used in many cities in Australia, including Sydney,
Melbourne, and Perth. Traffic management systems are also used to manage traffic flow and
reduce congestion.
7.Netherlands: The Netherlands has implemented smart parking systems in several cities,
including Amsterdam and Rotterdam. Traffic management systems are also used to manage
traffic flow and reduce congestion.
Conclusion
1. Nowadays, Traffic congestion is the important issue in the case of transport system in the
countries which are still developing. This allows rise in fuel expenditure and also leads to air
contamination.
2. The combination of technology of computer vision with that of IoT aids in building
intelligent system that can control traffic in an efficient way.
3. A few effective traffic system networks are built which gives drivers with real-time update
about the state of roads through a website.
4. IoT rooted smart roads improve commuting time, safety on road and decrease traffic jams.
These systems can be executed using any complex algorithms.
These system set up costs less and they are movable systems which leads to reduced traffic
crowding. The mechanized system decreases time spent by travellers on the traffic signals and
also decreases traffic crowding on busy roads.
5. IOT based smart parking system has been proposed which integrates several physical devices
to check the parking slot availability.
6. Mobile app allows the user to locate and reserve a parking slot in online, navigation from
entrance gate to available parking slot is also the proposed system reduces the driver’s effort
and time to search parking space. Prototype is built for single storage parking slot, but this
model can be extended for multi storage parking space.
