B. FLOW CHART FOR VEHICLE DISLOCATION

During dislocation of the vehicle, user scan the RFID card

while Exiting from parking slot IR sensor detects the
particular vehicle. The count is updated and incremented
by 1.How much time the vehicle is parked and according
their time amount will be detected.

screen. At the same time counter will be activated and the
count of free slot will be decremented by one. All the
necessary information will be updated and it is made
available on the website so that other vehicles owner get
benefitted. The users can pre owned the parking slot by
doing advanced booking from the website.

B. Exit from Parking Slot:

When vehicles want to exit parking the system also check

all the steps required to update count. The counter will
increase the count of free space by one and the booking
amount will be deducted from the owner account. The
system is synchronized with the website.

C. Free slot identification message

Using IP address that is been generated by the Node MCU

will be entered on the address bar of the browser then user
can access the available parking slot at that particular
location will be displayed on the website. For each parking
zone there will be unique IP address which when entered
user can access the website to check the availability.

Various individual modules are explained as follow:

A. Entry in the Parking Slot:

RFID Reader is installed at the gate of parking, as soon as

car entered in the parking zone RFID card of the driver is
scanned at the gate, which having all the necessary
information about the owner of the vehicle. After
successful authentication the proposed system will check
whether any free space is available in the parking slot.
Once checking has been done the most suited slot will be

V. CONCLUSION
Now a day's smart cities have been proposed with smart
parking system for maintaining the traffic of vehicles.
Recently advancement has been taken place in the field of
Internet of Things and Cloud technologies. In the proposed
system parking problem can be overcome with the help of
IOT based Cloud integrated smart parking system. Real
time information of parking is shared with the user using
website. It ultimately leads to enhance the quality of life of
users.
