Artificial Intelligence Is Not Omnipotent. Is Intelligent Parking Difficult to Solve the Problem of

With the development of China's economy, the improvement of people's quality of life and the rapid popularization of cars, people's demand for parking spaces is also increasing. The supply of parking spaces can not keep up with the rapid growth of car ownership, which not only puzzles drivers' travel, but also puzzles urban managers and restricts the development of the city. Driven by market demand, smart parking came into being. The disadvantages of traditional parking are prominent, and intelligent parking has become the future trend. The traditional parking mode is gradually criticized by the market. The study shows that among the motor vehicles driving on all urban lanes, a motor vehicle looking for parking space has five times the impact on traffic congestion than normal motor vehicles.

In addition, the number of large parking lots in China is gradually rising, and the number of parking spaces is increasing, which means that car owners will spend more and more time looking for empty parking spaces. In addition, the phenomenon of parking evasion and disorderly parking in major cities in China is more common and repeated, resulting in the disorder of the domestic parking market. These problems show that the traditional parking methods can not meet people's daily parking needs. In this context, the advantages of intelligent parking are gradually emerging. 1 Improve the difficulty of urban parking and alleviate the problem of urban traffic congestion. Use the smart parking app to improve the service before the vehicle enters the site, ensure to provide the owner's relevant parking information, predict the parking space information in advance, and speed up the owner's speed to find the parking point. Intelligent parking realizes vehicle drainage by getting through the information of the parking lot, effectively improves the utilization rate of parking space, speeds up the speed of parking and car search, and saves a lot of social time and cost. 2 Improve the construction of credit system and improve urban public safety.

Smart parking can help the government establish a parking lot credit investigation system through owner portraits, parking tracks, payment behavior and LBS data, and integrate the parking lot credit investigation into the overall national credit system. Smart parking will realize full coverage recording of all license plates in the parking lot. In case of criminal cases, it can assist the public security department to identify licensed vehicles and detect suspected cases through public security video monitoring network. Smart parking can effectively curb parking evasion and crime by connecting to the Internet. 3 Promote modern service industry and help smart city planning. In the construction of smart city, transportation is the key field.

Smart parking can open up the upstream and downstream of the parking industry and provide shared bicycles, charging piles, electronic invoices, life services and other emerging services. The intelligent parking system integrates the functions of parking lot information management, query, parking space reservation, payment, guidance and facility sharing, which not only optimizes the parking management links, but also reduces the parking time cost of car owners. It is the development trend of solving the urban parking problem and building a smart city. Intelligent parking is facing development difficulties. Intelligent parking has become a consensus among major city in the country.

Building new, efficient and transparent Internet plus artificial intelligence parking service and supervision system, resolving parking difficulties, parking chaos and other issues is the development trend of parking industry in the future. However, at present, although smart parking has gradually become the focus of the development of the parking industry, due to the late development time and imperfect market, the industry is still facing many development problems. 1 Smart parking related apps are array and incompatible with each other. The Internet has realized the optimal allocation of resources for the originally blocked information. Although the number of parking apps has mushroomed, the utilization rate is not high. The editorial board member and Jing Jun of Hong Kong's Chinese World magazine pointed out: "the biggest and prominent problem of smart parking app is system incompatibility, which leads to technical and capital barriers in information sharing, which violates the original intention of smart parking to revitalize the stock market and forms an artificial information island." due to mutual incompatibility, all kinds of smart parking apps cover different parking lots, The operation modes also have their own characteristics, causing no small trouble to users, leading to some parking lots refusing to cooperate, which has also been abandoned by many car owners. 2 Smart parking is not "smart" in some cases.

At present, with the increasingly prominent contradiction between traffic supply and demand, the use of intelligent means is the best way of parking guidance, but there are still problems to be solved in this regard in China. For example, card swiping parking, Bluetooth parking, license plate recognition and other methods, but there are still disadvantages. IC card swiping is inseparable from manual operation. Temporary vehicles can only be released after manual confirmation, which is still very dependent on people and cards; Bluetooth parking saves a lot of time without parking and swiping the card, but if multiple vehicles are within the range of Bluetooth, they will be misidentified and cause congestion; License plate recognition is the most widely used parking lot management method at present, but occasionally it will cause trouble to car owners and parking lots because of problems such as recognition speed and light influence. It can be seen that intelligent parking still has a long way to go to realize real "wisdom". 3 There is a shortage of parking spaces, and there is a phenomenon that there is no parking place for cars in the city.

The rapid growth in the number of private cars has led to the overcrowding of streets in the core urban area, and the shortage of parking spaces has become more and more serious. According to the data of prospective industry research institute, in the first half of 2017, the average parking space gap rate in the four cities of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen was 76.3%, and at least more than 2 million vehicles in each city had no regular parking spaces, while the national parking space gap was as high as 50 million. At present, the average ratio of cars to parking spaces in China's big cities is about 1:0.8, and that in small and medium-sized cities is 1:0.5. Compared with the ratio of motor vehicle ownership to the total number of parking spaces in international standard cities is 1:1.2-1.4, there is a big gap. This also shows that the shortage of parking spaces is still one of the main reasons why smart parking is difficult to develop rapidly in China. In general, the dependence of various hidden diseases not only reflects many bottlenecks such as imperfect intelligent parking app system, insufficient intelligent parking and shortage of parking spaces, which restrict the development speed of the industry, but also shows the necessity and urgency of developing intelligent parking in China.

Smart parking is the most important corner of smart transportation. The most important thing at present is to find a breakthrough and solve the existing traffic pain points. Old diseases are difficult to cure. How to suit the remedy to the case? As a high-frequency just need event of life, it is urgent to solve the problem of parking, and intelligent parking is the best solution to urban congestion. However, China's current smart parking industry ecosystem is still in the initial construction stage.

In the face of various disadvantages of the immature smart parking market, how should smart parking go in the future? First, increase supply and solve the problem of resource asymmetry. According to the prediction of intelligent transportation development strategy of transportation industry issued by the Ministry of communications, the number of cars in China will exceed 200 million in 2020. With the increase of car ownership, there will be a huge space for the construction of parking lots in China in the future. Lei Yu, director of Government Affairs Department of etcp, a leading enterprise in Beijing's smart parking industry, said: "focusing on the present and benefiting the long term, increasing the supply of basic parking spaces, optimizing all kinds of parking resources through smart parking, revitalizing regional parking spaces and solving the problem of resource asymmetry are effective means to realize the dynamic balance of vehicles, roads and parking spaces". At present, the national and local governments at all levels have incorporated parking into the overall planning, which has brought new opportunities to the development of smart parking industry. Secondly, stock transformation to promote the transformation and upgrading of the industry. At present, most parking space management is still simple and rough, which only meets the parking needs of a small number of people.

There are still many car owners who have nowhere to park. The transformation and upgrading of the management system of stock parking lots, the addition of parking lots and the innovation of industrial model will promote the expansion of the smart parking industry to a market space of 100 billion. The specific methods can follow the example of overseas countries to carry out intensive transformation of the stock parking lot, such as building a three-dimensional parking building to increase the volume upward, tapping the potential of the three-dimensional parking garage downward, hardware transformation to increase the parking space per unit area, etc. pushing the stock transformation to the agenda will reduce the parking pressure in the city. Finally, rely on the Internet to improve parking space utilization and parking speed, and realize efficient parking management. With the help of the Internet, smart parking can revitalize the stock of parking resources and fully allocate the existing parking space resources by connecting the parking space information of each parking lot in series.

Get through the parking lot information, realize vehicle drainage, and drain the vehicles that need to be parked in the busy parking lot to the parking spaces in the surrounding idle parking lot. In addition, one-stop parking by installing intelligent parking equipment will also maximize the efficiency of parking management. In general, China's parking market is in great demand, and the smart parking industry has great development space. Although the corresponding mechanisms still need to be improved, smart parking has become an important breakthrough in the transportation field of smart cities. Solving parking difficulties is a process of continuous exploration and trial and error.

Smart parking can only reasonably standardize smart parking app through close communication and cooperation among various industries; Symmetry of parking space and parking demand; With the advantage of "Internet plus AI", we can constantly explore the way forward. Intelligent parking can solve the problem of city parking and realize real "wisdom".
