Sažetak
The Internet of Things (IoT) concept enabled us to connect to different devices in our environment and gather data from various sensors integrated into such devices. This modern approach allows us to integrate IoT network-based solutions to receive information from the environment around us, and based on it change the behavior of people in such environment. It is our idea to influence the movement of citizens in modern smart cities, in our case specifically the movement of vehicles that people drive, as well as their parking habits and decisions. In this paper, we reflect upon one of such smart connected systems – Smart Parking System implemented in the city of Dubrovnik, Croatia, as a part of a new smart city system strategy. The paper starts with an overview of the smart parking concepts and technologies and a short review of existing smart parking systems’ implementations and classifications. We explain the importance of tracking mobility in our cities and propose a way how we can influence it, with emphasis on vehicle mobility. Details of implemented Smart Parking Systems are described as well as how it is integrated into a top-level smart city platform system, together with hardware and software implementation details. This paper concludes with our preliminary findings, potential improvements, and future research possibilities.
