Geoinformation in Society project at the ifgi in Münster: Visualization of parking data in Münster

Using the app (-> IntelliPark)

How to use this app

We intend to visualize data of parking lots in Münster. Two user groups can benefit from our application:

  1. Car drivers who want to find the best parking solution
  2. Analysts can look at occupancy of parking lots - this may be helpful for city planners or simply citienzens that are interested in parking statistics

The car driver or Citizen View is the default view and looks like this:

We have divided our application into four components. The main component is the map that visualizes the location of the parking lots in Münster. On a side bar we have a table view with all the parking lots that can be filtered and further inspected regarding semantic information. Each of the components are intended to interact with each other, so that the user's interaction on one component also have an effect on the others. With a temporal slider the user can change the time and weekday where the visualized data should be related to. The app should also work on a mobile device so that a car driver can plan their trip according to their current position and desired destination (Please do NOT use the app while driving!).

Furthermore, in the Citizen View, the user can select a destination either by typing an address in the autocomplete geocoder textview or selecting a place on the map by a click on it. When clicking on the navigation option then, the three most appropriate parking lots are shown as routes for that destination:

When clicking on one of these routes, the user can either directly click on the Google Maps icon to start the navigation to that destination on the device she is currently working on. Beside that, a QR-Code can be scanned so that the navigation can be started on a smartphone - which may be more intuitive in most cases:

The Analyst View looks like this:
