Cars are one of the most popular means of transport for people to go to school or go to work. Therefore parking problems are the biggest problem in most universities and public places.
There are four campuses at the University of Vancouver Island: Nanaimo, Parksville - Querick, Cowichin, Powell River. As most students came to school with their own cars, the problem also occurred at the Nanaimo campus, but the parking space at the Nanaimo campus was not efficient. This report aims to improve the function of parking lots at the University of Vancouver Island with better engineering. The main work is managed and supervised by Smart Space Inc. (a professional construction company).

This report aims to improve the function of parking lots at the University of Vancouver Island with better engineering. The main tasks are managed and supervised by Smart Space Inc. specializing in the construction and design of parking lots, especially Yami Al Shria, Lihanhan Li, and Yuting Li. The report will explain the process and details of parking lot productivity improvement and redesign of new security system.
The company has many experience in redesigning the parking space of the university. The project team believes that a new smart high-rise parking lot will improve the student's future learning experience, allowing students to save time and find space.
According to our survey, VIU has about 18,000 full-time and part-time students (viu.ca, 2014). Many of these students are driving a car to school every day. There is enough space from lot F and lot J to M,
Encourage the use of intelligent parking systems. The Advanced Parking System (APS) obtains information on the available parking spaces, processes them, and presents them to the driver via a variable information sign. There are two ways to use APS. Drive a driver in a crowded place to the nearest parking lot, a parking space is available, and a driver in a parking lot is guided to the open space. Please make sure there is enough parking space for the disabled to satisfy existing needs and regulations. The parking facility reflects the principle of universal design in people with special needs, parking space for disabled people, circular passage for wheelchairs designed for people with disabilities.
As automobiles form the world of the 20th century, automatic driving vehicles of the 21st century are so. In most cities, 20 to 30% of the available space is occupied by parking spaces and most cars are parked in 95% of the time. Autopilot vehicles will be used almost continuously (probably from the smartphone app) and will greatly reduce the parking requirements. The cars communicate with each other to avoid accidents and traffic jams, and riders can do other activities such as work, education, socializing at commuting time.
I intuitively know how much space is in the car and parking infrastructure until you quit and consider it actually. In most cities, the parking space is estimated to occupy 20 to 30% of the empty space. Most of these spaces are occupied for about 95% of the car parking time. In addition to safety, autonomous vehicles can also improve efficiency Even in the world where you can be summoned by passenger cars like Uber, most cars will continue to be used. This will reduce demand for parking space in the city. Automatic driving vehicles that are well aware of the surrounding environment require less parking space. By 2035, in the United States alone, demand for parking spaces is projected to decrease by over 7 billion square meters (this is half of Connecticut). This means more parks, more offices / apartments, and better use of real estate
