Abstract:
An example method described herein includes receiving an image stream of a non-demarcated parking zone; identifying dimensions of the non-demarcated parking zone; determining an overall area of the non-demarcated parking zone based on the dimensions of the non-demarcated parking zone; calculating a capacity of the non-demarcated parking zone based on the dimensions of the overall area and predetermined vehicle dimensions; determining a number of vehicles parked in the non-demarcated parking zone based on the image stream and an object detection model, wherein the object detection model is configured to detect vehicles in the image stream that are parked in the non-demarcated parking zone; determining a parking availability of the non-demarcated parking zone based on the number of vehicles parked in the non-demarcated parking zone and the capacity; and performing an action associated with the parking availability.
