Parking management system

摘要

A method for electronically reserving a parking space at a parking facility through a computer network comprises the step of accessing by a user communication with a server computer on the computer network, the server computer operating a program for reserving a parking space at a parking facility and containing data relating to a plurality of parking facilities. Thereafter, the user identifies a parking facility and the time for which a parking space is required in the parking facility, and reserves the parking space in the parking facility. Payment is effected for the parking space by providing information to enable the server computer to directly or indirectly transfer funds for the parking reservation from a user designated payment source to target account. Then, confirmation from the server computer is received that the parking reservation has been made.
