Abstract - This paper describes the approach to manage the parking by using the GPS (Global Positioning System). Finding Parking these days have become a major problem. Whether on roads, markets, malls parking is a major issue. Car drivers waste a lot of time finding the available parking space without any detail or direction. With the rapid increase of cars finding parking in efficient and easy manner without causing congestion is the need of every parking managing system. Current parking systems depend either on Human Personnel to keep a track on available parking space or sensor based system. In both the situations the information is not about the available space but only the total no of space available. In addition the cost of installation and maintenance of sensors is high. This paper shows a GPS based system to detect and indicate the available parking slot. Coordinates are used to detect the available parking slot.

I. INTRODUCTION
Finding Parking is a difficult task due to which people spend a certain amount of time in finding the parking space thus causing the traffic to slower down and leads to congestion due to lack of information available about the parking space. Different approaches have been followed to find parking such as wireless sensor and vision sensor. Using coordinates the location of the user could be known and also the parking system. By using the haversine formula distance between these two can be calculated which will help the user to find the nearest available parking and it will save time and money too as no infrastructure is needed. Using Google API's navigation can also be provided which will lead the way to the parking slot. User can also release parking slot if does not want to access it.
II. BACKGROUND
Parking has become a serious problem in cities due to the increasing no. of private vehicles. With the emerging problem the current system will not be able to handle the situation as they do not provide any information about the available parking space. Current system will need human resource for managing the parking system....
