Smart Parking Zone Utilization Log
This dataset provides granular, real-time logs of parking bay occupancy and turnover across city-managed zones, including sensor-driven status, location details, and dynamic pricing information. Designed for urban planners and municipal IT teams, it enables optimization of parking allocation, congestion reduction, and data-driven pricing strategies using IoT sensor data.
