| 摘要 |
A system for providing parking guidance includes storing historical parking violation related data correlated to real-time, parking violation related data, where a central computing system communicates with a user's computing device for notifying a user how to avoid receiving parking violation citations. The data is stored in a unified database, where the data is clustered by data types and by type of vehicle or type of vehicle plate. The user's computing device is used to identify parking intent, and a location determining apparatus identifies a current location of the user. A user engagement panel is used to share parking violation related data, where rewards are allocated to a user for contributing useful data, which are rated. Highly rated data is incorporated into notifications. The data is analyzed to predict a violation. A notification corresponding to the current location and user type are generated when violations are predicted. |

1. A system for providing parking guidance, comprising:
a central computing system in communication with a user and a plurality of additional users through a computing device; a unified database, in communication with said central computing system, said unified database storing parking violation related data comprising historical parking violation related data correlated to real-time parking violation related data, said parking violation related data being clustered into data types including commercial vehicle related data and non-commercial vehicle related data, further clustered by type of vehicle or type of vehicle plate; wherein said parking violation related data in said unified database comprises: one or more parking rules or regulations, parking violation records, parking violation codes, parking violation statutory codes or one or more abbreviations used by parking enforcement personnel, associated fines or other penalties, parking signage with one or more locations, parking meter locations and associated parking meter costs, street view with one or more photos or videos for one or more locations with a predetermined number of parking violation citations, notice of temporary or permanent parking prohibition, tow away zone information, or other parking violation related data; a clock mechanism, in communication with said computing device, for determining a present time and date; a user engagement panel, in communication with said central computing system, for at least sharing said parking violation related data by said user and said plurality of additional users and for allocating monetary or non-monetary reward; a location determining apparatus, in communication with said computing device, to identify a present location of said user; a processing apparatus, in communication with said central computing system, configured to analyze said parking violation related data in said unified database to predict a parking prohibition using at least an identified present location of said user, the present time and date, and said parking violation related data and to generate one or more notifications with said parking violation related data such that said one or more notifications with said parking violation related data correspond to said identified present location of said user and the user type of said user; and a display apparatus, in communication with said computing device, for displaying said one or more notifications with said parking violation related data to said user and said plurality of additional users. |
