Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the general idea of a network of interconnected things or objects that are able to collect and exchange data irrespective of the communication means. In transportation, IoT applications can help to improve transport utilization and road safety. The proposed work introduces a complete framework that solves the urban vehicle parking problem. This work helps the end users to efficiently find nearby parking lots along with the available parking spaces with the aid of navigational directions. The system consists of smart phone applications, cloud services, sensing and communication technologies. The proposed work indirectly reduces the unnecessary traffic congestion and fuel wastage that inevitably crops up due to the use of vehicles that are increasing tremendously in present era.
