Systems and methods for virtual parking lot space allocation
This disclosure describes systems and methods for virtual parking lot space allocation. An example method may include receiving, by a processor and from a first vehicle, sensor data relating to a first location. The example method may also include generating, by the processor and based on the sensor data, a first virtual parking space of a virtual parking location within the first location.
1. A system comprising:
a processor; and
a memory storing computer-executable instructions, that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
receive, from a first vehicle, sensor data relating to a first location, wherein the sensor data is captured by the first vehicle along a route at the first location;
receive, from the first vehicle, an indication that a first portion of the first location is a non-parking portion;
send, to the first vehicle and prior to receiving the sensor data, an indication that a second portion of the first location is a potential parking location; and
generate, based on the sensor data, the indication that the first portion is a non-parking portion, and the indication that the second portion is a potential parking location, a first virtual parking space of a virtual parking location within the second portion of the first location.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to:
receive, from the first vehicle, an indication that a first portion of the first location is a non-parking portion, wherein the first virtual parking space is generating in a second portion of the first location based on the indication.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to:
send, to the first vehicle and prior to receiving the sensor data, an indication that a third portion of the first location is a potential parking location, wherein the sensor data is captured by the first vehicle along a route within the second portion.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to:
generate, based on the sensor data, a virtual egress or ingress path through the virtual parking location; and
send, to a second vehicle an instruction to traverse the virtual egress or ingress path through the virtual parking location.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to:
receive, from a second vehicle, a request to reserve the first virtual parking space or automatically assign the first virtual parking space to the second vehicle.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to:
receive, from the first vehicle, an indication that a third vehicle is improperly parked within a third virtual parking space within the virtual parking location; and
send, to the third vehicle, an indication to depart the third virtual parking space.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to:
receive, from the first vehicle, an indication that a third vehicle is improperly parked within a third virtual parking space within the virtual parking location; and
send, to the third vehicle, an instruction for the third vehicle to adjust to a different position within the third virtual parking space.
8. A method comprising:
receiving, by a processor and from a first vehicle, sensor data relating to a first location, wherein the sensor data is captured by the first vehicle along a route at the first location;
receiving, by the processor and from the first vehicle, an indication that a first portion of the first location is a non-parking portion;
sending, by the processor, to the first vehicle, and prior to receiving the sensor data, an indication that a second portion of the first location is a potential parking location; and
generating, by the processor and based on the sensor data, the indication that the first portion is a non-parking portion, and the indication that the second portion is a potential parking location, a first virtual parking space of a virtual parking location within the second portion of the first location.
9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
generating, based on the sensor data, a second virtual parking space within the first location, wherein the second virtual parking space is a different type of parking space than the first virtual parking space.
10. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
receiving, from the first vehicle, a virtual egress or ingress path through the virtual parking location.
11. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
receiving, from a second vehicle, a request to reserve the first virtual parking space or automatically assign the first virtual parking space to the second vehicle.
12. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
receiving, from the first vehicle, an indication that a third vehicle is improperly parked within a third virtual parking space within the virtual parking location; and
sending, to the third vehicle, an indication to depart the third virtual parking space.
13. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions, that when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations of:
receiving, from a first vehicle, sensor data relating to a first location, wherein the sensor data is captured by the first vehicle along a route at the first location;
receiving, by the processor and from the first vehicle, an indication that a first portion of the first location is a non-parking portion;
sending, to the first vehicle and prior to receiving the sensor data, an indication that a second portion of the first location is a potential parking location; and
generating, based on the sensor data, the indication that the first portion is a non-parking portion, and the indication that the second portion is a potential parking location, a first virtual parking space of a virtual parking location within the second portion of the first location.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to perform operations of:
generating, based on the sensor data, a second virtual parking space within the first location, wherein the second virtual parking space is a different type of parking space than the first virtual parking space.
15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to perform operations of:
receiving, from the first vehicle, a virtual egress or ingress path through the virtual parking location.
16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the computer-executable instructions further cause the processor to perform operations of:
receiving, from a second vehicle, a request to reserve the first virtual parking space or automatically assign the first virtual parking space to the second vehicle.
