发明名称 Controlling use of parking spaces using a smart sensor network
摘要 Tracking use of a destination location is disclosed. A unique identifier of a first vehicle based on a sensor located within the first vehicle is received. Next, based on a first location of the first vehicle received based on a sensor located within the first vehicle, it is determined that the first vehicle is occupying the destination location at a second time. Next, based on a second location of the first vehicle received based on the sensor located within the first vehicle, it is determined that the first vehicle has left the destination location at a third time. Finally, it is indicated that the first vehicle began use of the destination location at the second time and that the first vehicle completed use of the destination location at the third time.

主权项 1. A method of tracking use of a destination location, the method comprising: receiving, at a first time and at roadside equipment, a unique identifier of a first vehicle based on a sensor located within the first vehicle, the roadside equipment being different from the sensor located within the first vehicle, and the sensor located within the first vehicle comprising or being in communication with a Global Positioning System receiver within the first vehicle; receiving, from the roadside equipment and at a server, the unique identifier of the first vehicle based on the sensor located within the first vehicle, the server being different from the roadside equipment; receiving, at a second time and at the roadside equipment, a first geographic position of the first vehicle based on the Global Positioning System receiver located within the first vehicle that is augmented based on the interaction between the sensor located within the first vehicle and the roadside equipment; receiving, from the roadside equipment and at the server, the first geographic position of the first vehicle; comparing, at the server, the first geographic position of the first vehicle with the area of the destination location to determine that the first vehicle is occupying the destination location at the second time; receiving, at a third time and at the roadside equipment, a second geographic position of the first vehicle based on the Global Positioning System receiver located within the first vehicle that is augmented based on the interaction between the sensor located within the first vehicle and the roadside equipment, the third time being after the second time; receiving, from the roadside equipment and at the server, the second geographic position of the first vehicle; comparing, at the server, the second geographic position of the first vehicle with the area of the destination location to determine that the first vehicle is outside of the destination location at the third time; indicating the unique identifier of the first vehicle; indicating that the first vehicle began use of the destination location at the second time; and indicating that the first vehicle completed use of the destination location at the third time, wherein the steps of receiving, determining, and indicating are performed by one or more processors.
