Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for booking parking time.
  • the invention relates to a method for booking parking time, in which a booking process is automated and without cash transfer.
  • a parking fee is paid before or after parking.
  • a driver or parker receives a receipt against payment, with which he can identify or prove the proper payment.
  • paying for the parking process as is customary, for example in multi-storey car parks, receives the driver, driver or user of a motor vehicle at the beginning of the parking process, an identifier through which an assignment to a parking start time is possible.
  • the parking period will be charged in accordance with a parking fee regulation.
  • Visiting a booking facility is often undesirable for a variety of reasons.
  • a user must first find the corresponding payment point and go there. After payment, the issued receipt or ticket must be placed on the car in order to indicate the correct payment of the parking fee or the payment process must be carried out before picking up the vehicle. This entire process is time consuming and annoying. In particular, the payment of the parking time often complicated, since possibly no suitable cash is at hand.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a simple and largely automated method for booking parking time.
  • the object is achieved by a method according to claim 1 or 2.
  • a driver or user leads (drives) his vehicle into a parking area.
  • Parking areas are regularly marked as such and in addition to the general identification as a parking area, a special identification of those parking areas can be provided, which allow a parking operation according to the inventive method.
  • the user after reaching the parking area (e.g., after parking the vehicle), initiates a booking process to book parking time.
  • This initiation of the booking process can be done in various ways. For example, a switch or button can be provided on a navigation system installed in the vehicle or a corresponding menu item can be selected.
  • the booking process can also be initiated via the vehicle-side radio or another device on the vehicle.
  • mobile communication devices e.g. Mobile phones or network-connected devices (any data services), these communication devices may be carried on the one hand by the user in the vehicle, so the user are assigned, or may be installed on the vehicle side (the vehicle assigned).
  • the spatial coordinates of the vehicle are determined.
  • the coordinates are transmitted to a computer-aided management device or a parking area is first determined on the basis of the coordinates.
  • the management device determines the parking area.
  • the administrative facility or in facilities provided by the administrative facility are accessible (eg, a linked database), coordinate areas and assigned parking areas are available. For example, coordinate areas for inner city areas and several outer districts may be identifiable in cities in which the parking fee to be paid is different in each case. However, it can also be an accurate determination of a single parking space, if the transmitted space coordinates allow this exact assignment.
  • a parking area is identified on the vehicle side relative to the coordinates, and a parking area code assigned to the parking area is transmitted to the vehicle-remote management device.
  • the determination of the spatial coordinates of the vehicle can be done in any technical way that allows a sufficiently precise spatial definition of the coordinates of the vehicle.
  • on-board facilities of a navigation device may be utilized (e.g., GPS) or user-guided navigation systems (e.g., handheld navigation devices or PDA-based navigation devices).
  • locating methods can also be used, which for example determine the position of the automobile on the basis of other data, e.g. based on the localization of a mobile phone of a user (about which, for example, the booking process itself may be initiated).
  • the coordinates and / or the parking area identifier as well as the user or vehicle identification are transmitted to the computer-aided administrative facility via any communication means.
  • wireless communication means WLAN, mobile radio network
  • a correspondingly equipped navigation device of the vehicle can establish a connection to an installed receiving device assigned to the parking space.
  • navigation devices already have interfaces to wireless communication means (eg radio) in order, for example, to provide traffic-related information, which are transmitted by radio, to be considered in route calculations.
  • Corresponding interfaces could also be used for transmission.
  • separate transmitters must be provided on the vehicle.
  • the transmission can alternatively take place via a mobile radio network.
  • a corresponding interface in the car e.g. a modem may be provided.
  • a mobile telephone associated with the user e.g., driver or passenger
  • the coordinates or the parking area identification are determined on the vehicle side and the mobile phone of the user is used for transmission.
  • a wireless connection between the vehicle and the mobile phone can be established.
  • cellular phones already have short-range communication links to the vehicle system (e.g., Bluetooth connection).
  • the on-board system may, via such a connection, send the coordinates and user identification e.g. as an SMS message.
  • a vehicle-side correspondingly prepared device radiates a signal or a transmission message with predetermined parameters.
  • a stationary receiving device for example at a parking ticket machine assigned to the parking space receives this message and transmits its own coordinates as coarse vehicle coordinates to the management device. In this case, only one vehicle identification is to be transmitted to the device assigned to the parking space in the signal emitted by the vehicle.
  • the determination of the coordinates can also take place remote from the vehicle, for example via a mobile service provider, which determines the coordinates of a telephone carried by the user and forwards them to the management device or transmits them to the mobile phone for further use.
  • a mobile service provider which determines the coordinates of a telephone carried by the user and forwards them to the management device or transmits them to the mobile phone for further use.
  • an allocated parking area is identified as a function of the transmitted coordinates. Subsequently, booking information associated with the vehicle or the user of the vehicle is stored in the manager. The storage of this booking information basically corresponds to the actuation of e.g. a parking ticket machine and deposit the appropriate parking ticket in the car.
  • At least the identification of the parking area and the time of the booking are stored as booking information.
  • the information about the parking area and the time of the booking in association with the user or the vehicle is generally sufficient to be able to settle when parking is completed.
  • the billing can e.g. be made via a centrally managed credit account of a user or billed at regular intervals or be collected from a reverential account. e.g. also over the telephone bill of a used mobile phone.
  • a message is transmitted to the management device, which indicates the parking process end.
  • the booking of the parking area is completed and a parking fee is calculated by the management device as a function of at least the parking duration and / or the parking area.
  • the message indicating the parking operation is made at the request of the user, but it may be done in any other way indicating that the parking operation has ended.
  • the message may be transmitted as soon as the engine of the vehicle is started.
  • the method according to the invention can also be used advantageously if no message is transmitted to the management device at the end of the parking process.
  • a parking time predetermined by the user is preferably transmitted to the management device with or after the initiation of the booking process.
  • the administrative unit calculates a parking fee at least as a function of the transmitted parking duration and / or the parking area.
  • the booking of the parking area is retrievably stored in the administrative facility.
  • a corresponding control person can set up a communication link with the computer-aided management device and, after entering an identification of the vehicle to be checked (for example license plate or other identifier) or the parking area to be checked, receive a corresponding feedback from the management device.
  • the computerized management facility may merely provide the answer information as to whether or not there is a valid reservation of parking time for a car in that parking area at the present time.
  • the pre-booked parking end time can be transmitted back to one or each car parked in the parking area.
  • a vehicle identification of a vehicle parked in a parking area is preferably transmitted to the management device in a message with the aid of a parking space monitoring device.
  • the administrative facility determines stored booking information associated with the vehicle on the basis of the vehicle identification, and the management device transmits the booking information or information generated from the booking information in a response message to the parking space monitoring device.
  • the vehicle identification may be, for example, an official license plate or any other identifier that can be read on the vehicle. It can also be used by a reader readable identifier of the vehicle or by its user as a vehicle identifier, which is stored eg readable in an RFID chip, which is mounted on the vehicle.
  • a list (or more lists) with car license plates or other identification features (eg user identification, car identification) and the booked parking times (park start, park end time or open parking end time) the one Park area are assigned, transmitted back.
  • a list or more lists with car license plates or other identification features (eg user identification, car identification) and the booked parking times (park start, park end time or open parking end time) the one Park area are assigned, transmitted back.
  • car license plates or other identification features eg user identification, car identification
  • the booked parking times parking start, park end time or open parking end time
  • a corresponding parking surveillance device may consist of special hand-held or vehicle-mounted devices, but may also be a portable computer, e.g. be a PDA or notebook.
  • the parking space monitoring device automatically determines its own space coordinates and sends them to query the booking information, in this case, the currently controlled parking space is first determined in the administrative facility and then checked whether a proper booking for this parking space the vehicle is present.
  • the coordinates to be interrogated or an identification of the parking space to be interrogated can be entered and transmitted. It may be from the administrative facilities lists with the parking data (park start, park end, open park end) for multiple vehicles be returned to the control facility in a parking area.
  • the spatial coordinates which are transmitted to the computer-aided device after the initiation of the booking process, are determined on the vehicle side with the aid of a location system.
  • navigation devices are suitable as the vehicle-side location system, but alternatively locating systems or location systems to be retrofitted without a navigation function (for example, theft location, emergency call systems) can also be used.
  • the spatial coordinates are determined far from the vehicle by evaluating signals that can be assigned to the vehicle.
  • the spatial position of a mobile phone used to initiate a booking process may be used. Since mobile phones, depending on their location register in different base stations, their position can be determined in certain tolerances. Regularly a determination of the position within these tolerances is sufficient to allow an assignment of the parking area (eg inner city area or outer districts).
  • the user can press a button with a corresponding function on the mobile telephone, which sets up a communication connection to the management device, provided that a corresponding inquiry coupling between the management device and the mobile network operator and thus a determination of the position is possible. It can be provided that the user must expressly permit the determination of his own coordinates. It is particularly advantageous if the reservation of the parking time is made solely by dialing a telephone number. This can be assigned in a particularly advantageous manner nationwide identical and depending on the location of a management facility. After calling the number example, a voice input of the vehicle identification can be done or an identifier can be entered via the keyboard.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram to illustrate the application of the method according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 shows a flowchart of a parking time booking according to the method according to the invention.
  • FIG. 3 shows a flowchart of a check for a proper booking of parking time according to the method according to the invention.
  • a user drives a vehicle 100 into a parking area 105.
  • the parking area 105 is defined by the spatial bounding coordinates (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) (for more complex parking areas, numerous coordinate pairs may be used to determine the parking area).
  • step 10 by user intervention on the navigation device of the vehicle 100, the user initiates a booking operation to book parking time in the parking area 105.
  • a navigation device has a selectable menu item.
  • the navigation device of the vehicle 100 builds in step 15 via a mobile network a connection 110 to a central management device 115.
  • the connection uses a vehicle-side modem or sets up a wireless connection to a user's mobile phone.
  • step 20 a data message is transmitted to the management device 115 via the connection 110.
  • the data message contains the coordinates (xf1, yf1) of the vehicle 100 determined by the navigation device, as well as an identification of the vehicle 100 stored or entered in the navigation device.
  • the management device 115 receives the message, timestamps it and stores the requested reservation of the parking time for the vehicle Parking space 105 and linked to the vehicle identifier in a temporary database.
  • the database is managed so that expired bookings are permanently deleted. In this way, comprehensive data protection is ensured, since subsequently to individual vehicles no historical booking data can be retrieved.
  • the management device After the booking has been stored in the management device in step 25, the management device transmits a booking confirmation to the navigation device of the vehicle 100 in step 30. A corresponding booking confirmation is displayed to the user on a display of the navigation device.
  • the user can then leave the vehicle and has thus already booked his parking time properly before leaving the vehicle.
  • a controller 120 carrying a control device (parking space monitoring device) 125 may make a check of the reservation of the parking space.
  • the controller 120 inputs a vehicle identifier of the vehicle 100 into the control device 125 for this purpose.
  • the vehicle identifier may e.g. an admission flag or other deposited identifier, e.g. an externally readable sticker on the vehicle with an identifier that identifies the vehicle user as a user of the method according to the invention.
  • the control device 125 has its own position determination means, e.g. a GPS receiver.
  • the controller 125 determines its own coordinates and establishes a connection to the manager 115 at step 60 (alternatively, a parking area identifier of a parking lot to be checked may also be entered into and transmitted from the facility). In a message, the own coordinates as well as the vehicle identification are transmitted to the administrative facility.
  • the manager checks the stored booking information at step 65. For this purpose, the management facility reads from the booking database which current booking for the vehicle identification of the vehicle 100 is present. Based the stored coordinates (xf1, yf1) is identified as the parking space 105 for which the booking was made. Subsequently, it is checked whether the coordinates transmitted by the control device 125 are also located in the parking space 105.
  • the manager returns the positive booking status to the controller 125.
  • the controller 120 receives the readable information that a proper booking is present.
  • the management device 115 can not determine an active booking for the vehicle 100, for example because no booking has been made at all, or because it has already been deleted due to expiration of the parking time, a corresponding acknowledgment is transmitted to the control device 125.
  • the manager 115 may determine a reservation of parking time for the vehicle 100a, but the coordinates associated with and transmitted to the controller 125a correspond to the parking space 150 while the booking is in progress of the vehicle corresponds to the parking space 105.
  • the inspector 120a upon appropriate request with the control device 125a receives a response that there is no proper booking for the parking space 150.
  • the posting information remain stored in the manager 115 until the end of a billing period.
  • Billing can be done in any manner using the manager, e.g. by single debiting of a deposited account, by collecting charge in time intervals or by load on a telephone bill.
