Title Parking Application (SwiftParker)
Supervisor C.W. Trueman
Description In modern urban environments, the challenge of finding available parking spots is a significant concern for drivers. This difficulty is intensified by increasing urbanization, a growing number of vehicles, and inadequate parking management systems. Drivers often spend considerable time searching for parking, leading to additional traffic congestion, increased fuel consumption, and environmental pollution. The objective of this project is to address this problem by focusing on improving the efficiency of parking availability systems and reducing the time drivers spend searching for parking.

Objectives:
This project aims to design a system that provides drivers with real-time information on available parking spots in the downtown Montreal area. The system should consider environmental conditions between 5-40°C. Additionally, the project aims to create a user-friendly mobile application that integrates these functionalities to enhance the user experience. High-level functionalities include real-time parking availability updates.

The primary deliverable will be a parking monitoring system.
