in #crypto6 years ago

We’ll all agree, parking has become such a huge challenge in these modern times. With almost everyone taking his or her vehicle to work, to shop, to do groceries, or something else, finding a parking spot is not a “walk in the park”. It’s actually downright frustrating especially when you’re in a rush and you can’t find a decent parking space. In many cases, you’ll have to spend so much time, energy, and fuel, going around and around, waiting for a vehicle to free up a space so you can take over. And your engine running is contrbuting to air pollution. Here’s another thing, even if you get to find a parking space, you realize you don’t have enough coins for the parking meter. Not only is this annoying, but this can put you at risk for violations, too, for which you can be fined.

Your parking woes are just about to end with ParQ, the utility token that will serve as the driving force behind the Green, Smart, and Connected City Platform (Parksen), a platform designed to modernize the current parking system and address numerous issues resulting from its inefficiencies. The platform will take advantage of blockchain, IoT devices, and sensors, and human resources, such as drivers, to gather information and determine where congestion happens, and why. The information will be relevant especially to drivers to help them get to their desired location faster and hassle-free, and it will also serve as reference points for municipalities to take the necessary actions to improve the traffic situation in the area.

Having said that, Parksen will have as one of its key components a parking application, known as Parksen Parking. Available for download via the Google Play Store, the Parksen Parking application allows drivers to reserve and pay for a parking spot ahead of time, recommends the best route to take to get them to their destination quickly, and provides information on traffic congestion in real time.

Parksen will likewise feature a universal dashboard that will have integration capabilities and possess many other great features. A quick look of the dashboard will give users plenty of useful and relevant information, such as places where there is traffic congestion, the state of the parking lots (whether they’re full, half-full, paved, unpaved, and so on), and connectivity status of IoT devices. On the dashboard, too, users will find a marketplace that will feature eco-friendly and smart appliances.

Parksen will also offer a cloud solution, to bring together municipalities, companies, consumers, and garages in one place, without having to depend on third-party instrumentalities.

And, of course, there’s the token, ParQ, which will cause the movement of activities in the ecosystem. ParQ tokens will be used by drivers to pay for parking fees and other products and services, and by companies to pay for programs that will help them in their mission of creating a greener city.

Here are the four key components of the platform:

All these components will come into play to finally put an end to parking woes, and at the same time, reduce travel time, stress, and air pollution. Even more exciting, the platform will be incentivized, which means to say, users can earn token rewards for simply contributing to the platform, i.e., collecting and submitting information about traffic congestion, pollution, and other relevant data. Users also earn ParQ tokens for renting out their properties to be used as parking spaces.
