IoT smart parking system for reducing green house gas emission

Rapid climate change results natural calamity and severe economic impact and threats to the life. Burning fossil fuels by the medium of transportation contributes 1/3 of portion in increasing greenhouse emission and leading to raise surface temperate. Commuters in and around the developed cities faces difficulties in finding parking lot due to lack of notification process and autonomous parking systems. This causes commuters to take multiple rounds trips to get the parking slot which causes burning additional fuel and ultimately producing excessive CO

emission. This paper describes solution to smart parking system using Internet of Things (IoT) to override parking hazards and explains how does it helps to minimize emitting greenhouse gases. IoT enables smart parking system using the system of interconnected Raspberry Pi, Distance Sensor, Pi Camera devices together. This hardware reacts to one another collects data and transmits to cloud storage.
